Day 6 Summary | Inter IIT Sports Meet
As we wrap up all the updates of live action going on field at Inter IIT Sports Meet today, it was a mixed day for IIT Kharagpur with some brilliant performances that saw them through to the next rounds and some better performances by opponent teams broke their hearts, jeopardising their campaign.
Football Semi-Finals:
IIT Kharagpur beats IIT Madras in the nail-biting Semi-Final by 1-0.
With the help of solitary goal by Abhinav Mishra, Men's Football team outplayed hosts IIT Madras by 1-0 and advanced to the finals that will be played tomorrow.
Men's Squash team soon followed the suit and advanced to the finals by getting past the challenge of IIT Kanpur by 2-1. Its final will be played tomorrow.
How could Men's Badminton team stay behind? They too joined the party, completing a treble of teams qualifying for finals. Bruising aside the string challenge of IIT Delhi by 3-2, they too qualified for the finals to be played tomorrow.
But everything didn't go KGP's way today. Women's Badminton team suffered a heartbreaking loss to IIT Delhi by 2-1 in quarter finals and hence, losing out to get a spot in semi finals, ending their campaign.
Women's Tennis team encountered something similar and we're outplayed by the team that played better today. A 0-2 defeat handed to them by IIT Bombay meant their elegant journey got over which was studded with some sparkling performances in between.
Women's Basketball team certainly raised the bar and got something to cheer about. Whatever may the score line suggests, they didn't leave anything to turn up the game in their favour. With a score of 25-44, they lost out on the gold medal to IIT Roorkee. This silver, for sure, is no less than gold, for them, for us, for all Kgpians.
Men's Volleyball team took on hosts IIT Madras in quarter finals and were straightway put under pressure by the opponents. They did reply back with winning the next game but couldn't hold thereafter, suffering a 1-3 loss and missing a chance to go to semi finals. For most of the games in this tournament, they had their tails up and that something they would be extremely proud of.
Men's Basketball team was up next, taking on heavyweights IIT BHU in quarter finals. The match swinged like anything, but ended up being on our side. KGP sealed it's spot in Semi-Finals by getting past IIT BHU with a score of 57-55.
Men's Tennis team was last in the fray for today, playing the 3rd place decider match with IIT Delhi. They put each ounce of their energy in the court but we got to admit that opponents player better. With a loss by 0-2 to IIT Delhi, IIT KGP got fourth place in Men's Tennis.
Hence, KGP stands with a total of 6 gold medals, 5 silver medals and 7 bronze medals after six days of the ongoing sports meet. We will be witnessing three final matches tomorrow. So, gear up to cheer the teams tomorrow.
Here's the full summary of all the action that unfolded today.

We are proud to inform that Prof.Bhanu Bhusan Khatua, an Associate Professor at the Materials Science Centre, IIT KGP has gained international attention for his work on "Bio-waste onion skin as an innovative nature-driven piezoelectric material with high energy conversion efficiency" in collaboration with POSTECH, South Korea. Their work has been published in 'Nano Energy journal'.
The crux of this innovation lies in their approach to finding new types of energy harvesting materials, which is one of the fields of research Prof. Khatua pursues. Their discovery of the piezoelectric property of naturally occurring and abundantly available onion peels has pushed us one step closer to realizing the dream of renewable energy. Their work documents the ability of these materials to power up small devices such as calculators, watches and mobile LCD screens by generating the required energy from different pressure pulses ranging from our minute heart beat pulses to high frequency sounds.
The generated power from these devices could also light up 30 simultaneously connected LED's in series with each other, with a maximum capability of powering 73 LED's. They have also explored the mechanisms and working principles of these devices. The experiments were carried out practically by attaching the devices to the human chest, table fans and speakers to measure the output voltage.
The numerous potential applications of these devices from healthcare monitoring to robotics have been highlighted much in the academia and paved the way for critical acclamation.
The Scholars' Avenue congratulates the team on this success and wishes the team much more in the future.

3rd Inter IIT Chess Meet | IIT Kharagpur crowned 'Chess Champions'
With the finish of last and seventh round that saw top two teams on points table i.e., IIT Kharagpur (1) and IIT Roorkee (2) clashing with each other to clinch the coveted gold medal, IIT Kharagpur has become the 'Chess Champion' amongst 16 IITs that participated in the tournament. With IIT Kharagpur needing either a win or just a draw against IIT Roorkee to bag the top spot, our players managed to hold the strong opponent team to a draw and thus, winning the trophy.
While Hemanth (White) won his match, Vivek (Black) and Kaustav (Black) drew their matches. However, Prithwi (White) went down to the strongest player of the tournament. With 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss, the match was drawn with a score of 2.0-2.0. The draw meant IIT Roorkee settled for the silver medal and hosts IIT Madras got the bronze medal.
Throughout the tournament, IIT Kharagpur had maintained its dominance over opponents. Their journey to the title included wins over IIT BHU (4-0), IIT Kanpur (3.5-0.5), IIT Bombay (2.5-1.5), IIT (ISM) Dhanbad (3.5-0.5), IIT Guwahati (3.0-1.0), draw with IIT Roorkee (2.0-2.0) and a solitary loss to IIT Madras (1.5-2.5).
An impressive record of 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss is certainly the fruits of the mental toughness and chess acumen of all the players. But what stands out for KGP in this journey is the outstanding performance of Kaustav Chakraborty, a first-year student, who wasn't only adjudged the second best player of the tournament but also was instrumental in KGP winning the crown with 5 wins and 2 draws in his 7 games. Though he lost to Tamhankar Viraj (IIT Roorkee) by just a mere difference of 0.5 points for the title of 'Best player of the tournament', showcasing such strong chess skills at such a big stage and making opponent players bite the dust effortlessly is no mean feat! And the contingent captain Hemanth Kumar Potluri infused the much-needed confidence into the team and marshalled the troop to the glory. Prithwi, Vivek, Saurabh and Gajendra too got into the act and had fun giving opponent players a taste of their own medicine.
Their individual performances were as follow:
Koustav Chakraborty - 6 points (7 games) - 5 Wins, 2 Draws
Vivek Gupta - 5 points (7 games) - 4W, 2D, 1L
Hemanth Kumar Potluri - 4 points (7 games) - 3W, 2D, 2L
Prithwi Sinha - 2.5 points (4 games) - 2W, 1D, 1L
Saurabh Desai - 2.5 points (3 games) - 2W, 1D
This win marks a milestone as far as Chess Culture at IIT Is concerned. It will go a long way in infusing a new life to the interests of chess enthusiasts and work harder to retain the trophy next year. Not to forget, Chess club, IIT Kharagpur has also been quite active regarding the same and the credit for this thumping win goes to all the stakeholders including players, their mentors, officials etc.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur congratulates the entire Chess team for winning the trophy!
The Scholars' Avenue shared IIT KGP Sports's post.
3rd Inter IIT Chess Meet, IIT Madras:
IIT Kharagpur bags Gold!
Our team finished at the top of the table with 11 matchpoints at the end of seven intense rounds. Today's Round 7 match between KGP and Roorkee ended in a draw, following which both finished at 11 matchpoints. However, KGP won the Gold on virtue of higher game-points (Tie-Break 3).
Koustav Chakraborty, a first year undergraduate student, performed brilliantly throughout the tournament and was crucial to the team's victory. He finished as the '2nd Best Player of the Meet', very narrowly missing out from the top spot due to today's enforced draw.

A workshop on Product Engineering and IP Commercialisation was conducted by Entrepreneurship Cell, IIT Kharagpur in association with RMoSEE. We saw participation from Prodex, Technology Transfer Group, RGSOIPL and RMoSEE. The speaker, Mr. Kameshwar Eranki, Founder and CEO, VajraSoft Inc.,USA, threw light on the impact of disruptive technologies on future markets and the ease of management of one's Intellectual Property through technological advancements.
Additionally, a hands-on demo was shown to the participants in areas of Reverse Engineering, 3D Printing and Rapid Prototyping.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur had a chance to interact with the CDC chairman Prof. Debasis Deb, the topic of discussion being the ongoing placements. First 6 days of phase 1 of this year's placement saw an astoundingly high number of final year students getting placed. Nevertheless, there are students who could not get any job offer in the initial days and the CDC is apprehensive about the disappointment among such students. Professor Deb said, "There are still a lot of companies lined up in the first phase itself and we shall surely be having a high number of job offers even towards the end of the first phase. So, the students need not lose their spirit and take part in the placement process to show their full potential." When asked about the growing disparity between the number of core sector companies and non-core companies coming for campus placements, he replied, "We tried to call as many core sector companies as possible. But of course, there are several issues, many of them not responding for the first phase of placements. Many more PSUs are lined up after January and the students should not lose hope. Even in the first phase, many core sector companies have come." His message to the students is clear, " Until you come to Nalanda, you can not get the job. So why lose hope? For an instance, 100 students registered for a company, but only 48 turned up in Nalanda for tests (Real Data). We expect more enthusiastic participation since not even half of the placement process is over yet. The companies would be shortlisting more number of students if more people appear for the tests and it increases the probability of more job offers. We are looking after the students with utmost care and hope that they would be giving their best for sure."
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur wishes the students all the best.

Indian Railways has decided to test the two solutions to address a longstanding problem of sleepy drivers given by IIT Kharagpur's Professor Aurobinda Routray and his team of Electrical Engineering department. The two technologies are named 'Walopi' (Warning Loco Pilot) which is a special software which assesses if a driver is falling asleep and 'Chemvist' (Check My Vigilance State') which is a video game for train drivers to check if they are fit to drive. The main objective is to prevent a driver from being assigned duty if he is likely to become drowsy and to alert the operations system including the control centre if he falls asleep while driving.

Making a robot is the first step towards mimicking God.
The annual Kolkata workshop concluded on November 5th, 2017, with an excellent note and a great zeal and turn-up from students across many engineering colleges. Technology Robotix Society, IIT Kharagpur, in association with Kshitij, IIT Kharagpur conducted a two-hour seminar in Kolkata to acquaint students from different technical institutes within the city with the problem statements and events that are to be held this year at the grandest Techno-management fest this nation witnesses. Kshitij.
The opening note of this seminar was an airy one, with our beloved Albatross hovering in mid-air over the audience, who enjoyed it a lot. Followed the series of bot demonstrations of the Problem statements for this year’s events. Namely: Poles Apart, the manual event, Stax, the autonomous event and Fortress, the Image Processing event.
The objective of this workshop was to pull out to the limelight the fact that making a robot is not as difficult as people think it is. In fact, there are a lot of possible innovations that one can figure out and make the best out of it if given an opportunity like the robotics events at Kshitij. This was well pointed out by making a few classic and simple robots by the members of Technology Robotix Society. Like a gesture control bot, that is literally controlled by your fingertips. A stair-climbing robot demonstrating the importance of a mechanical design in making a useful bot, and finally a fully autonomous robot that can find it’s way out of a corridor using only sonars.
The workshop ended with the official release of the events that are to be held this year at Kshitij, along with the demonstration of a working prototype for each event. This was done to point out the fact that the events that we have set up for everyone to learn and have fun with are not only feasible but can prove to be a step in a direction that might take you to place, you never thought of.
Referring this workshop to a huge success will not be completely right, if not wrong because the real measure of success will be the participation and the enthusiasm which Kshitij will witness this year. Technology Robotics Society wishes that everyone fulfils our purpose of all the hard work that goes into making these events possible, that is, spreading the culture of robotics far and wide so that what we do can make a substantial impact on the society positively.
Hoping for a great participation and enthusiasm, we wish you good luck!
Amazing work by our alumni so far! We have reached 20% of the target of $60,000 for Student Health and Wellness Program. Visit https://donorbox.org/iitk...

Here's an important notice for all KGPians from the CIC team - "10Gbps internet link is down due to fibre cut, the ISP (Railtel) is working to repair the link. Traffic is now being routed through our 2Gbps backup link and network access is expected to be very slow. Since placement is going on, all users are requested to stop any non-essential internet access until the link is restored to allow placement to go smoothly. We will inform when the link is restored."
Finally, it's day one here signalling the commencement of 15-18 days of this Placement Season. As the Dean (Student Affairs), here's the message of Prof. Somesh Kumar to all the students,
"Dear Students,
You have a lot of expectations from the upcoming placement season starting today. I wish all of you success. However, this placement process is not the end of the world. You may be successful with a high package or low package, or you may not get placed. What is important is to keep trying. This wonderful world has an infinite number of options for life. You have to look for the ones which may be achievable for you. Everyone is not the same and so are the life paths and careers will also not be the same. The important thing is to see what we can do for family, friends, society and the nation. Finally, "Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts."
Best wishes for happy life to all of you, stay safe, stay healthy, stay happy.

A research by Professor Sajal Dhara, Department of Physics, promises to increase manifold the speed and the storage capacity at which future devices work. His team proved that next-generation devices like quantum computers can be designed even without the use of electrons. The artificially created new particle is lighter than the mass of an electron by 0.0001 times which would provide simple solutions to the most intricate problems. The research has been mentioned in acclaimed science journal 'Nature Physics'.

With our exams just around the corner, it is difficult to ignore the host of stress and anxiety related problems they bring with them. The recent state of affairs in our campus have been very unfortunate, hugely detrimental and in contradiction to an institute with a hallowed reputation. The root of most of the problems though can be traced back to skewed and misaligned perceptions of mental health, followed by some glaring inefficiencies in the systems put in place to keep a check on the same. Our institute's latest partnership with the anonymous online counselling forum, YourDOST, is an effort directed to remove the veil on the former.
In this light, The Scholars' Avenue had a chance to interview one of the co-founders of this organisation - Ms.Richa Singh, also alumni of IIT Guwahati, one of our sister institutes. YourDOST is offering its services to the students of IIT Kharagpur with the institute bearing all the costs. The only requirement from our side is that we sign up with them through our proxy server.
Read on to find out more about the organisation and its journey. Don't miss this chance to check up on your mental health and all the best for the upcoming exams.

Hey KGP!
The time for downloading our endsem admit cards is here. Alas, we cannot do the same without filling a feedback form. Most of us would love to do it, if we could read responses for the courses we fill too, rather than only accolade by the director.
So we have gone ahead and created a course page for every course that IIT KGP offers out there. But we'd like your help in adding a review for the course. Please add a small summary for your course you have taken this semester and help enlighten the rest of us. Popular optional courses such as electives, will be shared by us for Spring 2018 registrations to help you all out.

Balakalakaar, an event organized AIESEC in IIT Kharagpur, in association with Sparsh, an NGO based in Sakchi, Jamshedpur, was held on Sunday, 12th of November at Gurukul School, Gurabanda, Jharkhand. It was an event which provided an opportunity to the children in the remote rural settlement to express their talents in art, dance, drama, and singing. Another different aspect of this edition was that children just didn't perform, their performances were also based on social evils like child marriage, dowry, gender inequality etc. which still prevail in their villages , and we are sure such an event will create a difference in the mindsets of the people, and motivate them to break free of these traditions.
The event saw the participation of over 70 children and was spectated by their parents and other residents of the village. Shri. Kunal Sarangi, Member of Legislative Assembly, Government of Jharkhand, was the Chief Guest of the event.
On this Children's day, we take this opportunity to present you few glimpses of Balakalakaar 2017.
Because " Smiles are what we live for!"
Entrepreneurship Cell, IIT Kharagpur wishes everyone a very happy Children's Day! May we learn from our younger self's to get inspired for the road ahead.

A team of 4 undergraduates from KGP, Raj Anand, Idal Poorekhorsandi , Anish Moonka and Priyank Sangani have been invited to the finals of ‘Creative Shock’, an International Social Business Competition. Their team ‘Alchemist’ is part of the top 10 teams, chosen from participants from over 102 countries. They have already qualified the first two rounds and have been ranked 9th worldwide. This year’s finals will be held in Vilnius, Lithuania at the ISM University of Management and Economics, from 30th Nov to 3rd Dec 2017.
They are facing tough financial constraints and are looking to raise money for this very cause through crowdsourcing and need help, especially from our esteemed alumni. They currently have raised ₹ 2,400 out of their estimated target of ₹ 3,45,100 with 18 days left to go as of now. This is another call for all those who can help them reach the target so that they may share their idea and implement it successfully.
The link that will follow connects to their fundraising account and also has complete information regarding their initial rounds, including their preliminary presentations and video submission. More information on the team and a breakup of their expenses is also provided. You can check their ideas and their social initiatives by clicking the link. Briefly put, their product aims at tackling unemployment among the low-skilled population. They conceptualized different low-cost and unconventional marketing strategies for targeting the socially aware population.

This is wonderful initiative from the students’ side and every donation they receive will take them one step closer to their goal. We urge our readers to have a look at their work and decide for themselves how they can help this team of social entrepreneurs.

“For us, the biggest motivation is frustration” are the words of Dr. Harish Hande, a Ramon Magsaysay Award (often termed as the Asian Nobel) winner and most importantly, a distinguished alumnus of IIT Kharagpur. An energy engineering graduate (Batch of 1990, Nehru Hall) from our institute, he is a social entrepreneur and the co-founder of SELCO India that has redefined energy sustainability in the country, lighting more than 3,50,000 households at a fairly low cost. In the year 2008, Dr. Hande was chosen by Business Today as one of the "21 young leaders for India’s 21st century" and further in that year, India Today named him one of the 50 pioneers of change in India. But the awards are not the driving force behind his pursuit of excellence, it is the hunger to find solutions which keeps him going. We proudly present to you an article about Dr. Harish Hande in continuation of our web series "Jewels of KGP".

A Centre of Excellence on Advanced Technologies was launched at IIT Kharagpur in the presence of Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, Mr. Babul Suprio.
Extensive experience in Industrial Research and Incubation for IIT Kharagpur made it the best choice to lead this initiative. The Center will serve as a platform for leading industrial houses in India to come together to form a consortium and jointly support an academic centre for Advanced Manufacturing Technologies.
"It is unique for leading industrial houses in India to come together to form a consortium and jointly support an academic centre for Advanced Manufacturing Technologies. We chose the consortium model for industrial partnership because the need for the infusion of next-gen technology in the manufacturing sector transcends domestic competition and needs the concerted cooperation of all industrial houses in this sector. The consortium will also enable self-sustainability of the centre beyond the period of DHI support," said Pallab Dasgupta, Dean Sponsored Research, IIT Kharagpur.
The likes of Tata Sons, Tata Motors, Tata Steel, TCS, Ramkrishna Forgings, Heavy Engineering Corporation, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited and Ampere Vehicles are onboard in this consortium.

We had some words with Dimple Kapadia (Girls' Captain, Inter IIT Athletics team) and Vice Captain Deepashree Dutta regarding the state of participation of girls for Inter IIT Sports. They rued the lack of girls' participation in enough numbers to the extent that they don't even have the complete and stable team for some of the events! Most of the students look for immediate results and recognition, expecting themselves to see in the Inter IIT team in just one year of practising which is not so likely. Hence, they tend to stop coming for the practice. Go through the video to know more about their views:

After more than 200 pre-placement offers from reputed companies, much-awaited placement season marked its beginning with ONGC selecting five students yesterday. The month of November has been allotted to select PSUs which mainly include oil companies for their recruitment process through campus placements. ISRO will also be recruiting in this month. Other companies will be arriving on the campus in the first fortnight of December for the first phase of campus placements.
The final year students are leaving no stone unturned so as to tick all the right boxes. Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur wishes them all the best.
Director IIT Kharagpur shared National Digital Library of India's post.
“Ask the right questions, and nature will open the doors to her secrets”
A precocious and gifted student, Sir C V Raman, passed his matriculation at 11 and his F.A., with a scholarship, at 13. A Gold Medal for a Bachelors in Physics at the Presidency University Madras was followed by a Master of Sciences with the highest distinction.
Pursuit of the sciences brought him to academia in KOLKATA and thus began what he would fondly refer to as the golden era of his career. He continued his research at the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Sciences (IACS) of which he was also the Honorary secretary. It was IACS that Raman led experiments, along with K S Krishnan, on the scattering of light, and discovering what came to be known as the Raman effect.
This discovery of immense importance soon garnered him recognition and fame and plaudits of the scientific community all over the world including enthusiastic mentions by the ‘father of nuclear physics’ Ernest Rutherford. He was soon conferred a knighthood and numerous awards. In receiving the Nobel Prize for #physics in 1930 he became the first Asian and non-european to receive the Nobel in the sciences.
#CVRaman had and continues to spark the imagination of the scientific community of India till this day. He was born #OTD in 1888. We honour him with a glimpse of his life and works sourced from the Raman Research Institute: http://bit.ly/2AaMPTu

Researchers at IIT Kharagpur have developed a new Smartphone App, SmartIHC-Analyser, which can help in faster and more accurate evaluation of cancer after treatment. The App analyses the expression of a protein marker (Ki-67) for determining an increase in cancer cells.
The smartphone is fitted to the eye-piece of the microscope using a specially designed 3D-printed holder to take microscopic images of the cancer cells. To analyse proliferation, the colour variations in the stained cancer cells are studied.
The researchers analysed 30 cases of Ki-67-stained breast cancer tissues collected from Tata Medical Center, Kolkata (which collaborated in the study) and compared the results from the app with manual counting. Compared with the manual method, the app had nearly 97% accuracy.

IIT Kharagpur has witnessed many initiatives by various halls of residence to increase the level of interaction among the students so they can actively participate in the group activities and share their problems among themselves.
Radhakrishnan Hall of Residence organised three events in the past two weeks: Intra-Hall Volleyball Tournament, Football Tournament and Mini-Militia Tournament. The three events saw an enthusiastic participation by the first and second year students and seniors as well. The best part about the volleyball and football tournaments was on the spot commentary with an added sense of humour which was not only enjoyed by the players and spectators alike but also attracted the residents of the hall to join them on the spot.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur appreciates such initiatives and wishes to see many more activities of this kind coming up in the near future!

In order to boost the entrepreneurship initiative at IIT-KGP and enable technological knowledge exchange, IIT Kharagpur and Pepperdine University (US) have joined hands. Pepperdine is globally known for its venture capital-backed entrepreneurial ventures, would collaborate for technological knowledge exchange with IIT Kharagpur. Referring to the latest PitchBook report on top universities producing VC-backed entrepreneurs, workshop faculty member, and coordinator of the programme Dr. P K Dan said, "Pepperdine MBA ranks 25th where universities like Harvard, MIT, Stanford, INSEAD or Carnegie Mellon are also listed and such collaborative initiatives will benefit our students.". Our Honourable Director Partha Pratim Chakrabarti recently met the US-based team and urged the group to prepare a roadmap for continued collaborative activities. The faculty at Pepperdine, Prof. Larry Cox recently visited IIT KGP and conducted a workshop on Entrepreneurship Promotion along with his associates at Entrepreneur Institute Inc, where he is the Chief Education Officer. They imparted training on increasing creative capacity and the creative problem-solving process.
The workshop was jointly held with the Rajendra Mishra School of Engineering Entrepreneurship (RMSoEE) at IIT Kharagpur and the upcoming Research Park of IIT Kharagpur in Kolkata. It focused on product engineering, reverse-forward engineering, and rapid prototyping.
Professor Larry Cox said, "Pepperdine University's Graziadio School of Business and Management is very pleased to be collaborating with RMSoEE, IIT Kharagpur to strengthen both our educational offerings with regard to technology entrepreneurship."

Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur shared Vox Populi, IIT Kanpur's post.
The Students’ Senate has finally devised a solution to overcome the inconvenience caused due to the park space crunch in the LHCs, halls of residence and practically everywhere for quite some time now. And they have come through in fine fashion. Their idea of a cycle pool got its wings when OLA took the initiative to make one in the campus.
The OLA cycle pool services (OLA Pedal) will see a trial period of a month or two first. Renting these cycles is also made hassle free as it would be similar to booking an OLA ride through the app. You enter a code, unique for each cycle, and the combination for the lock would be provided to you. And after you are done, you can drop it off to an OLA parking nearest to your destination, notify the app and the fares would be as per the following, for the trial period: free for the first 30 minutes (per ride), and then Rs.5 per 30 minutes.
The second phase would have much more sophisticated cycles, with a GPS, QR codes, smart locks, instead of the ones they have now, better security features to keep the cycles within the campus and much more. The campus will have around 400-600 of these cycles by the end of this week to be dispatched for public use with around 250 of them within the week. With this innovative solution, we surely will have one less thing to worry about. Happy cycling!

The much awaited collaboration between IIT Kharagpur and YourDost has finally turned into reality. All the current students can set up their accounts on the website (https://yourdost.com) and get all kind of assistance that they are looking for in their hard times. Accounts can be set up (for free) using only KGP LAN and WiFi. However, once registered, you can use the services anywhere and anytime.
On 31st October, the official launching ceremony was held at S.N. Bose auditorium. The event was attended by Mr. Puneet Manuja, Co-founder of YourDost, along with renowned psychologist Dr.Gini. But the participation from the student community was not so encouraging in number as there were hardly 40-50 students present there. Firstly, Mr. Puneet made the audience familiar with the online portal and services of YourDOST. He also added that this 24 x 7 active Counseling Center can be used free of cost only after you have registered through the institute network once. Later, the head psychologist of the YourDOST enlightened us about the basic terminologies and symptoms of mental health and illness. In the end of this interactive session, he earnestly suggested everyone to remove the stigma of visiting a psychologist for the help.

To aid Team KGP, this year too, the organizers have requested the guidance of eminent personalities, Mr. Nagraj Prakasam (Acumen), Mr. Ajay Mutereja and Mr. Md. Saif(EI) to name a few.
Taking the advantage of the immense human resources, knowledge and a great international community, the Hult Prize has always helped the launch of social enterprises which shaped the lives of millions and stood as a prominent student revolution for the transformation of the society.
Yet again IIT KGP proved its excellence in the field of research by inventing a smart polymeric material that can fix car scratches and dents by simply heating the damaged area if it is coated with acrylic polymer named PHEMA-indole-TAD. It has been developed by a research team led by Prof. Singha at the institute’s Centre for Rubber Technology. The institute is going to make this solution commercial in collaboration with companies like ASIAN PAINTS and PIDILITE.

The marking scheme of the Problem Statement has been circulated to the General Secretary, Technology of all the halls.
Contact them for further information.
Here is the mail that has been sent by Mayank Srivastava, VP, TSG to the KGPians regarding the action plan.
_______________
Hello All,
First of all, thank you for showing the level of concern for the institute and being the part of the Open House session. I have personally thanked our Director, IIT Kharagpur for being the part of the Open House session till the end and helping us resolve all the facts.
We had several meetings with different stakeholders to have an immediate action plan for our problems and prepared a thorough list of solutions. The attached action plan contains the suggestions of ours and the Director. I have tried to give few insights in each of the step giving you more clarity on the same.
ACTION ITEMS
The following points are references to the pdf attached. Kindly go through following points after going through pdf.
1) As asked by few students in the Open House session, the Director has agreed for the external inquiry to be set up. He has himself talked to a retired judge of High Court for the same. However, on expressing concern from our side regarding the problems students involved in the event may face, the Director assured by saying that it will be tried to reduce the friction as much as possible.
2) For the medical audit of BCRTH an expert committee will be appointed in 15 days, panel which would consist of about 2 male and 1 female doctor. We are expecting the audit to be done by the end of December.
3) A complain portal with a complain escalation mechanism is being prepared. The basic feature of the complain portal will be prepared by us which would then be reviewed and improvised by the B C Roy Technology authorities. We are expecting the portal to be implemented by next week.
4) Digitalization of B C Roy Hospital: We have proposed to make all the process of a normal visit of a student to BCRTH digitalized. This will include taking an appointment online, making a student's profile containing all the details of previous visits. Digitalization will remove all the ledger related work and will involve the least paper work. We are also trying to incorporate this in ERP helping students in a systematic approach towards the health issues. It will take about 3 months for the finalization.
5) BCRTH has been stocked with certain life-saving items like anti-venom, anti-rabies etc and other items like clothes to be reviewed in one week. It has been done to equip the hospital 24*7 prepared to tackle few emergency issues.
6) Regarding the public statement from the Institute, the Director has shared the Open House video from his personal Facebook page.
7) We are taking a lot of initiatives by conducting several events for mental well being and also training G Sec Student Welfare Council, TSG and Student Welfare Group. For the same, an annual calendar list will be prepared and will be followed every year.
8) A Dean's Council is being formed to assist Dean, SA and to tackle more student affairs.
9) For a better fire emergency solutions, a plan is being developed by the security to have fire drill and checking the quality of extinguishers.
10) One Annual Health Checkup (not mandatory) whose expenses will be integrated with medical insurances.
11) Tie-ups with Railway hospitals are being made to handle more cases locally.
12) A framework will be planned by December to develop a regulatory mechanism to assess the performance of BCRTH and Counselling Centre throughout the year.
13) One Extra Academic Activity to be incorporated in already existing EAA system, National Cultural Organization. Technology Students' Gymkhana in association with SANDHI and Happiness Centre will be working on the same.
Status of ongoing action items have also been listed in the pdf. I urge you all to stay concerned about the progress of these points as they are of dire need, I will be more than happy to update you about any further development (ping me anytime). As I have stated in my earlier mail also that we, as a student community is also at fault somewhere as you can observe lack of interaction between seniors and even batch-mates, we need to revive our culture which is the core of our development and for the same I will communicate feasible action plan soon. I will try my level best to implement further suggestions and new initiatives towards better KGP.

Microsoft teams up with professors from IIT Kharagpur towards developing their search engine 'Bing'. The aim is that it could assist users looking for subjective information and trust opinions like "How to make small talk with new friends" or "The song that defined the 80s". Their basic idea is to extract meaningful information from social media conversation to help search engines answer social list queries better by deploying artificial intelligence and machine learning. The team used multi-word hashtag from Twitter and by analysis of it, the search engine could scour social networks and detect valuable insights from public conversations using a precise algorithm to provide deeper search experiences.

The session turned out to be highly interactive with active participation of students, stakeholders and administrative authorities including the Director and the Deputy Director of the institute. There was a discussion on quite a few questions and proposals regarding improvements in services of BC Roy Technology Hospital and the efficiency of Counselling Centre. The discussion involved several discrepancies on part of the authorities as well as the students regarding BCRTH and its requisite facilities involving ambulances and ICU. Overall, it was a good and interactive discussion on various prospects, where the students received satisfactory, and in some cases, unsatisfactory answers to the questions raised.
Thus, with an aim to take some major steps on priority in order to improve the Counselling Centre and medical facility standards at BC Roy Technology Hospital, Awaaz conducts a survey asking KGP community for suggestions for the same.
Please respond to the form attached below so that relevant suggestions could be passed on to the highest of the authorities as discussed the previous day.

Yesterday, a group of professors and other staff members rallied for the "Dearness Relief Fund and implementation of 7th pay commission". As they said, they haven't got this fund from last two years. IIT Bombay, ISM (IIT) Dhanbad and many other IITs have already released this fund but they can't see any sign of IIT KGP releasing this fund anytime soon. They stated that most of the government bodies have already released this fund, even some of newly constituted bodies as well. But IIT Kharagpur hasn't released the same for its employees.

We request all our readers, including students, alumni and the professors to give this a read and please reach out to us in case you have any points of clarification in the comments or if you have a more detailed point that you want to raise personally as a mail or a message to us.

The Open House session was conducted in TOAT today that started from 7:50 pm and lasted till 11 o'clock. The Open House saw a great participation from the students and stakeholders. We need to remind all that before this, three open houses were cancelled on a trot due to very less participation of students. But this time, TOAT was full jam packed with around 4000 students. With active participation from the students, we had a much needed discussion between the students and administration. We would like to thank all the stakeholders for the same. We will be publishing the minutes of the discussion and a detailed report on the same. Stay tuned.

| Message from Student Senate|
This post is to clarify the various misunderstandings that we have been informed about (points 1-5). We also lay out our plan of action (point 6) to get our demands heard and met.
1. Incident report
It was compiled to make student community aware of the account given by the eyewitnesses, and the responses (or the lack of it) by the administration on the same. We kept everything in the raw format so that the students could judge for themselves which claims are true, or what answers are satisfactory. We encourage everyone to raise any point from that report in the Open House in case they are unsatisfied.
2. Questionnaire distribution to admin and students
The objective of the Open House is to get clear cut answers out in the open to pressing questions and queries in the students’ minds. This was the reason behind floating the questionnaire to the student community in advance. However, to prevent anyone from getting away from answering a difficult question by a simple ‘we will look into it and get back to you’, we think it is important that they receive a copy of the questions beforehand and come prepared to face the students. We will release the same copy to the students as well.
3. Selection/Filtering of questions by Senate for Open House This was the most disheartening impression held by the students communicated to us. As the Senate, we are always on the students’ side. We have been working hard to compile all questions collected by Awaaz’s and the VP’s survey. We want to finalize a repository of questions that cover different aspects of the issues at hand. We hope you can trust us enough to not tamper with the questions and let difficult ones be skipped by anyone. The major part of the session is for students to ask questions directly, a report of which will be compiled and again sent to everyone.
4. Conversation with Mr Raghuvanshi, ASP
The purpose of visiting him and sharing the conversation was to bring out a missing perspective regarding the situation. We identified his to be a unique standpoint having closely seen both incidents people have been talking about. However, we were unable to frame our interaction to portray the same intention. By no means was that document a hidden threat against protests, a way to shift blame or even an attempt to absolve the status of B.C. Roy’s facilities. We apologize for any anger or dissatisfaction caused due to our inability to recreate the conversation for you. No one can stop you to express yourself through peaceful protests. At the point when things start to escalate and lose control, the police will be bound to take actions. His statement was supposed to be a warning to students to keep things in check for their own benefit. A repeat of what happened back in 2009 can have some regretful consequences for some people, and we do not want that to happen to anyone unnecessarily.
5. Limiting the session to only B.C.R.H and Counseling Centre
To fulfil the objective of getting concrete solutions and directed answers, it is extremely necessary to keep asking questions that are on point. Diversifying the topic might lead to the focus being shifted, or people getting lost in the conversation. We will have other similar sessions in the future to tackle other issues. We hope you will show similar fervour towards them as well.
6. Action plan
The student community is filled with anger and sorrow. It is important to channel these emotions productively. We plan to use this session to put up our demands. The administration is given an ultimatum to come up with the solutions, and the plan for implementation. If we feel, as a community, that their response is inadequate, we will protest (non-violently) against the administration for a better KGP on Saturday itself. We believe this to be the best course of action at the moment to get favourable results.
The Student Senate address some issues from the students through this post. Do read through to understand their perspective on some topics of discussion this week. We appreciate their attempt to reduce the communication gap and engage the students.

| B.C. Roy Hospital Tales | Part 1
Recently, we had released a feedback form on B.C. Roy Technology Hospital and most of the responses are an eye opener regarding the current state of affairs at one and only hospital available in the campus. We feel that it's equally important for all the people to get to know about some of these experiences* that people have had with this hospital.
Experience 1:
I had an accident on my cycle which cut off a decent chunk of my toe with the nail at 7am. I was made to sit waiting for over 30 mins with no first aid provided and hence, losing blood. And when someone finally came to clean up the wound, they were harsh and gave me a lecture having disturbed their sleep.
Another time, during the vacations, I had stitches in my ear which I requested to be checked and removed when ready. The removal was postponed by almost a week saying my wound hasn't healed which resulted in my wound getting septic due to inadequate cleaning. The stitch removal process in the septic state was extremely painful and when requested for a surface anaesthetic, I was told that it was a long procedure for allowance. So, I should "MAN UP".
Experience 2:
I was suffering from viral fever and the medicines prescribed by the initial examination couldn't cure me. As it worsened, I was hospitalised after 10 days. In the hospital, I was given high dosages of antibiotic (1000 mg) along with saline drip regularly. This was the first time I was given a drip (completely unnecessary).
After 2 days, my condition worsened with my temperature reaching up to 103 F. I contacted my family doctor who clearly told me that it was impossible to cure me with the medicines I was being given. My parents arrived the very next morning and I forcefully got myself discharged and taken to my hometown. I was there given no antibiotic, just some Vicks tablet and Dabur Honitus as the infection was in my throat which the BC Roy doctors couldn't find out. I became completely fine and came back to college in 5 days.
Experience 3:
I have a disease called migraine. Once, I reached B.C. Roy with a major attack of migraine and at the same time, they were handling a critical case of some other person. I was crying like anything. No one was ready to take my complaint while I literary cried in front of them. But no one was helping me, may be due to that critical case. I didn't want doctors to pay attention towards me instead of that critical case but I wanted them to have a sufficient number of emergency doctors to treat 12,000 KGPians.
Experience 4:
During my second year, I and my friend met with an accident. We went to the hospital late night and the doctor who was on the night shift in the emergency section said this to us - "Yeh koi time hai aane ka" **Is this a proper time to come to the hospital?** Later, after getting an X-ray, I got to know that I might be having a fracture on scaphoid bone. He wanted to confirm. So, he recommended 'another' X-ray and told me to come after a week because he won't be available. Finally, I settled with having a treatment outside our campus!
A one-liner response that conveyed various things at one go was "Never been to BC Roy because of bad reviews".

Continuing the thread of presenting the best of the Rangolis that KGP saw this Diwali, here's the Bronze winning Rangoli of RK Hall with the detailed description.
Theme: Life of Buddha
Detailed Description: The world today is moving towards a dark age, an age where wars would be inevitable. Also at present people are facing huge stress, pressure. Disputes and conflicts are becoming a commonplace now. Buddha, many centuries ago, has shown a path to peace. He told his followers to follow five basic rules if they want to lead a happy life and if someone wants to attain pure peace, can follow his way. By means of our rangoli, we want the people of today to learn from Buddha's life, his teachings and ways of becoming happy. As KGPians have 'peace' as their lingo, the life of a person who first attained 'peace' was shown.

An eerily similar incident back in 2009 caused the resignation of the then Director and the Dean of Student Affairs among the multitude of events it resulted in. Three tragedies happened on 21st October 2017, 8 years later.

Dear readers, we think it is imperative that facts come out as they are. As such, this post is about how B.C Roy Hospital’s negligence and casual attitude has cost a life.
Witnesses’ account on what transpired in that ambulance -
Nikhil’s serious condition got him referred to the nearest hospital capable of handling such cases - West Bank Hospital, Howrah. An ambulance left with two students with the patient along with an attendant and a special doctor, both of whom were said to be ‘the best’ B.C. Roy Hospital could provide. However, according to reports, their behavior towards the patient could only be accurately described as apathetic and cold. Nikhil’s multiple injuries and the bumpy ride sometimes led to his limbs moving to awkward positions. On bringing the doctor’s attention to this and asking if it would be appropriate to move it back to its original position, he glanced at the patient once and then looked away without giving any response. This was reportedly his attitude throughout the supercritical journey to Howrah, with two inexperienced boys having to take up the heavy responsibility of ensuring that Nikhil completes it alive. The ambulance was being guided by a police vehicle as the driver did not know the way to the hospital. He took a wrong turn into a one way road and in the attempt to get the vehicle back onto the main road, the ambulance broke down and everybody had to get down to push the vehicle to get it going, leaving Nikhil alone inside. It was during this ruckus that the IV drip to his arm (with the injections and the medicines) came out as well. While the doctor ignored this detail, the attendant tried to put the syringe back but then gave up saying ‘it is only a matter of 10 minutes until we arrive at the hospital’. It was at this point, the witnesses tell us, that Nikhil’s health started declining rapidly and the urgency of the situation started escalating. The broken down ambulance was proving to be a dead end, and they hitched a lift on a truck to reach the hospital. What was just a matter of ‘10 minutes’ became 45. He was barely holding on and within 10 minutes of trying to revive him in the hospital, he breathed his last. The official time of death recorded was signed off by a doctor, who arrived much after his death.
As is pretty clear with this account, Nikhil might have made it out alive had the ambulance, and the personnel accompanying him on behalf of the hospital were competent and proactive during the entire ordeal. It is appalling that people keep dying yet the administration refuses to take any responsibility.

Theme: Ascendancy
Description: Through the focus on one's work, man can attain complete control over his life and destiny, depicted by the wheels of time. When he does that he can then move on to change the lives of people who matter to him symbolized by Krishna playing his flute, who is the human avatar of Vishnu. In the final stages, he will have the power to influence the entire world and thus be Vishnu himself. Hence, the 'ascendancy' of man over his God.

Continuing the thread of presenting the best of the Rangolis that KGP saw this Diwali, here's the Silver winning Rangoli of Patel Hall with the detailed description.
Theme: The Last Option?
Description: This was in the wake of recent events that happened at IIT Kharagpur. It was depicted that what a child, a student of today has to go through. He has problems that seem incomprehensible to his own people. He has questions that nobody can answer. There are obviously certain issues that a child can not discuss with his parents directly. Also, in such cases, the child hesitates to seek anybody's help. Under this situation, suicide seems to be the last option. But it isn't!
Suicide is never a solution to anything. We must understand that pushing your child to any limits is not the way he or she can grow. We must try and create an environment for every child that allows him or her to follow what he or she dreams, allow them to discover possibilities, not compare them with anyone and not treat them like a robot manifested by the so-called 'Modern World'.
Andrea and Angelica have come all the way from Italy to volunteer at Disha Seema Centre (a school for underprivileged children) in Kharagpur. Let's hear from them what they have to say to about our festival of lights.

There has been much distortion about the suicide of Nikhil Bhatia, and this post is an attempt to clear up the specifics of the incidents the best we can. This is the first in a series of questions to the administration about the way incidents like these have been handled and the lack of facilities to deal with mental and physical health emergencies.
In a report published by ToI, which has since been corrected online ( https://timesofindia.indi... ), Nikhil was said to have 'accidentally fallen off the terrace of LBS while playing with his friends'. On speaking to witnesses present, we were told that his bag was found beside a dustbin on the 4th floor of the hall, and that the doors to the terrace of that wing are kept locked. The wing corridor was also empty at the time of the incident, and no one was reported to have been playing around there at all. The corridor grill is such that it'll be highly unlikely for a person of his physical stature to have accidentally fallen off, especially with the platforms at the base. We were also made aware of a previous attempt by the same student a month back in VS Hall, and his FacAd being aware of his problems (as quoted in this article - https://timesofindia.indi... ).
The incident took place at around 11am on Saturday morning, when some workers and students heard a loud thud and saw a bloodied Nikhil on the cemented ground. He was immediately taken to the B.C. Roy hospital and then referred to the West Bank Hospital, the closest hospital with an ICU being in Howrah.
We pray he rests in peace now, and hope the rest of us can look around and fix the broken pieces that let people among us slip away. Most importantly, we hope that 5 deaths on campus in this year are enough to shake us out of this apathy and get the facilities working to fulfill the basic needs for a place with more than 20,000 people in it.

Continuing the thread of presenting the best of the Rangolis that KGP saw this Diwali, here's the Gold winning Rangoli of SN/IG Hall with the detailed description.
Theme: Menstruation
Description: Vedic Hinduism and Pagan religion believed that the alignment of the moon and celestial bodies that is, the nakshatras, gave the female her core strength and her ability to reproduce and regenerate. Menstruation marks the birth of fertility and this rangoli tries to show this phase of a woman’s life. The upper region of rangoli depicts the universe and the celestial bodies. The moon cycle mirrors a woman’s menstrual cycle, which lasts roughly 29.5 days, just as the waxing and waning of the moon. A woman’s menstrual cycle changes from the menstruation of new growth to the ovulation of full power and blossom, to the pre-menstrual phase of harvest and degeneration, and back to menstruation of renewal again. Here you can see Venus, the Greek goddess of love, beauty, femininity, fertility and prosperity. The entire energy of the universe concentrates, forming a spiral, bestowing all its power to give women their inner strength.
The menstrual blood is sacred and self-nourishing, as you can see in the centre. These flames represent her core strength to fight her inner demons and also Indian celebrations or yagyas performed when a girl first menstruates. The lotus symbolizes the womb and water her ability to be calm and composed during tense situations. The greenery depicts her connection with Mother nature, the butterflies her freedom and flowers her beauty and elegance.
To the right is painted a picture of the harsh realities of today, because early religions never considered menstruation are unholy or impure. Whether ovulating or bleeding, struggling with pre-menstrual syndrome or conception, our bodies, energy levels, sense of self, even our abilities are constantly shifting each and every day. And yet, nobody talks about it – a taboo among more mundane and everyday topics. The myths, such as, a menstruating woman is dirty and impure, that she cannot worship, that when she touches a tree, it wilts and that can she cannot lead a normal life during that phase are baseless, for it’s not the inner you but only the biology that is changing. Let us accept that menstrual blood is pure, sacred and respect women for being blessed with the power to give birth.
As Manu from Hindu Mythology says in Manusmriti, “Yatra Naryastu Pujyante, Ramanti Tatra Devtaha, Yatraitaastu Na Pujyante, Savastatra Afalaha Kriyaha”
Which means ‘the divine are extremely happy where women are respected, but where they are not, all actions, however good and holy, are fruitless’. Let's talk about menstruation freely, not as if it's a taboo and let the flower of fertility blossom.
Just a few days ago, IIT Kharagpur saw best of the Rangolis on the occasion of Diwali celebrations. Though each one of those was fabulous, some of them stood apart as per the judges. And many of you didn't get a chance to come through those due to various reasons like rain or staying at home.
So, we present the Gold winning Rangoli of RP Hall.
Theme: Shiva Shakti Cha.
Description: As formerly presented, Daksha Prajapati disposed of the notion of inviting Shiva and Sati in his yaagya, but Sati been stubborn on her will to attend the yaagya, convinced Shiva to let his devotees escort her to the yaagya. Devi Sati’s incoming wasn’t welcomed at the yaagya, Daksh Prajapati spoke false in favour of her consort, insulted Lord Shiva which consequently angered Sati and she incarnated into "Aadi Parshakti" to curse Daksh Prajapati that he’ll conceive death through Shiva’s hands and she herself took samadhi at the very event. Later Shiva incarnated in form of Veerbhadra and realized the curse Daksha Prajapati was entitled to and killed him. Vishnu separated Aadi Parshakti’s corpse into 52 pieces, to ensure her soul to rest in heaven.
Decades later after the happening of this event, Aadi Shakti again took birth on earth as Parvati and worshipped Lord Shiva to impress Shiva and marry her.
SHIVA symbolises consciousness, the masculine principle. SHAKTI symbolises the feminine principle, the activating power and energy. SHAKTI (or Prakriti) means energy, power, movement, change, nature. It is the maternal principle – the provider, abundance. SHIVA (or Purusha), on the other hand, is pure consciousness – the unchanging, unlimited and unswayable observer. Purusha has no desires whatsoever; these are inherent only in Prakriti. Purusha is the empty.
As described in Shiv Purana:
एवं परस्परापेक्षा शक्तिशक्तिमतो: स्थिता।
न शिवेन विना शक्तिर्न शक्तया विना शिव:॥
Meaning, Shiva and Shakti always long for each other, neither can Shiva exist without Shakti, nor can Shakti exist without Shiva.
Only when Shiva and Shakti combine; action, movement and creation arise. Until energy is impregnated with consciousness; it is ignorant, disordered, aimless and “blind”. Energy alone can produce nothing; consciousness bestows upon it content, form and direction. Conversely, consciousness without energy is dormant power, sleeping energy, and on its own is unable to be the cause of anything. Just as Prakriti without Purusha is unable to act, and vice versa, Purusha without Prakriti is also incapable of creating anything.
Shakti is the motherly love of God that surrounds us with warmth, caring and protection. Shiva is the paternal love of God that gives us consciousness, clarity and knowledge.
Two different lights were used to depicts two different scenes in a single Rangoli. This Rangoli, under blue light, showed Shiva and under red light, showed Parvati. It was made up of 1 lakh 20 thousand pixels and included more than 360 shades of colours.

A candle march was organised by Technology Students' Gymkhana, IIT Kharagpur yesterday evening in the memory of beloved student Nikhil Bhatia to pray for the peace of his soul. The Director, Dean (UGS), Dean (Student Affairs), President (TSG) etc. were present on the occasion along with the students. Everyone prayed for the peace of the soul by lighting candles and observing a silence of two minutes.
We pray to the almighty supreme to give enough strength to his family to bear this loss!
As per the discussion that followed after, most probably, an Open House session is going to be held this Friday regarding which students will be duly notified.
Don't you often observe anomalies in the society and wish for things to change. Then must you realise that if you want to see the world get any better then you've got to "wish" less and "do" more. Be the change you wish to see in the world.

Students' Alumni Cell feels proud in announcing the final dates for the 15th Annual Alumni Meet, our flagship event organized on campus. The Institute gears up for 12th-14th January, 2018, the days when the alumni will revisit their cornerstone of success. The past will rejoice in the present, old memories will be relived and new memories will be rewritten from them.
The guests of honour for this year's meet are the Batches of 1968 (Golden Jubilee), 1978 (Ruby Jubilee) and 1993 (Silver Jubilee) and Students' Alumni Cell would like to cordially invite them for the meet.
A sad and quite unfortunate incident took place today when a 5th-year student of our campus died in Kolkata after attempting a suicide and consequently, sustaining injuries. The questions were already being raised about the steps taken by the administration to curb the suicides after the campus saw 4 suicides on a trot in the campus last semester but today's incident unearths and points out towards some serious and major loopholes in the existing setup.
For the reasons understandable, we will not be mentioning any names here.
As per the information that we have got, the attempt of committing suicide took place around 10:50 am today in LBS hall when the student jumped from the 4th floor of the hall building. He was not a resident of LBS hall of residence. As soon as people found out, they called the ambulance. So, he was soon taken to the hospital in the ambulance. On seeing the student’s condition, BC Roy Technology Hospital referred him to Kolkata. The ambulance left the campus around 12:10 pm in the noon after completing all the paperwork where the student accompanying him was asked to get the signatures of the warden and a lot of other paperwork which almost took 40 minutes. In the meantime, there was a problem with the lights of the ambulance. So, another ambulance was called. Also, there was another delay of almost 10-15 minutes as the attendant was out of reach. During this time, as the pulse was near zero, the hospital people gave some injections and initial treatment to stabilize his pulse to 40-50. If they wouldn't have done it then he might have passed away right then. So it took nearly 25-30 minutes to stabilize the pulse. And finally, the ambulance left the campus around 12:10 pm. The ambulance was accompanied by 2 escorts to Kolkata. Two of his friends with the Hall Manager, two attendants, and the doctor were in the ambulance. The driver misjudged a path to the hospital which further worsened the situation. As told by the accompanying students, the behavior of the hospital staff raised a lot of questions as they were not very supportive. The oxygen masks and the drips got mishandled and they were not able to fix it properly again. Prior to some 15-20 minutes before reaching the hospital, ambulance broke down and they were left in a miserable condition. The students tried to get another vehicle. After a while and a lot of efforts of the students and the policeman accompanying them, a Tata Ace owner agreed to take them to the hospital. As soon as the additional SP and the Director got this news, they informed the hospital at the other end and an ambulance was started in a reverse way to attend the case, but as the ambulance came to the spot, they saw nobody and they got information that they have left using some other source. Midway, the tank of this vehicle got emptied. So, they got it refilled. After all this delay, they reached the hospital couple of minutes after 2:30 pm. And the doctors there, after some time, declared him dead.
The reasons for the attempt of suicide, the role of administration, faculties, management, counseling center will be raised later after getting all the details. But, the main question that arises here is the ability of the BC Roy Hospital in one of the premier institutes of the country to handle 12,000 students and thousands of people residing in Kharagpur, when it does not even have basic amenities at its disposal and the behavior of the staff coming into question. Can't we have a fully functional hospital as it would serve more than 25000 people!
We are not blaming anyone for the incident but some major steps need to be taken on priority in order to improve the medical facility standards at BC Roy Hospital as this is not the first time that such events have happened. There have been some major events in the past as well. Referring to Kolkata if any major injury takes place is not a solution.
And if this continues without any improvement, the chances of such mishaps happening again are pretty high. It's high time it is made a priority.
Please respond to the form attached below so that this serious issue can be raised to the highest of the authorities.

Inshorts, Swiggy, Runnr, TVF- we all have heard about these Startups who are currently making it big in the Indian Startup Ecosystem. The people who have shaped these startups were once a part of the KGP Family, and they hustled everyday in order to turn their idea into a reality. They believed to be the game changers and decided to leave their secure jobs to face the odd struggles that every new entrant faces.
But lately, IIT Kharagpur has seen a surprising drop in the number of operational startups and for the same reason, we want you to take this survey. This will help us to analyse different reasons why students are not starting up and the problems that the current start-up cofounders are facing in the campus. Ultimately, we will come up with some solutions that will surely have an impact on the current scenario.

Yet another gloomy day
Amongst the persisting dark walls, we must not close our eyes to the lighted windows. Life certainly doesn't go on as per our expectations. Yes, there are times when we hit the rock bottom and feel as if all the doors are closed, ending everything for us. But hang on! That's not the true and complete picture. It might momentarily occur to you that everything has gone dark. But in the long run, remember that every night sees its dawn. Nothing is permanent and neither are the adverse times.
If we stick around those who struggle to find flickers of hope, we might help them end up lighting a flame of their own.
Life gives hope and probability of happiness in future, Death kills them all.
Hold on and let's help others in the same!
Here are some lines by Swami Vivekananda:
HOLD ON YET A WHILE, BRAVE-HEART
If the sun by the cloud is hidden a bit,
If the welkin shows but gloom,
Still hold on yet a while, brave heart,
The victory is sure to come.
No winter was but summer came behind,
Each hollow crests the wave,
They push each other in light and shade;
Be steady then and brave.
The duties of life are sore indeed,
And its pleasures fleeting, vain,
The goal so shadowy seems and dim,
Yet plod on through the dark, brave heart,
With all thy might and main.
Not a work will be lost, no struggle vain,
Though hopes be blighted, powers gone;
Of thy loins shall come the heirs to all,
Then hold on yet a while, brave soul,
No good is ever undone.
Though the good and the wise in life are few,
Yet theirs are the reins to lead,
The masses know but late the worth;
Heed none and gently guide.
With thee are those who see afar,
With thee is the Lord of might,
All blessings pour on thee, great soul,
To thee may all come right!

IIT Kharagpur is stepping ahead to shape up their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives by partnering with corporate houses and NGOs. The institute has done many research works, published them and obtained the patent for the same, and now it's time to implement those efforts for the benefits of the society, as stated by Prof. Siddartha Mukhopadhyay, Dean of Alumni Affairs and International Relations, IIT Kharagpur. The institute is looking forward to collaborating with industries from Germany and France working in India for their CSR initiatives. Corporate groups and NGOs are already excited about the potential when a technology giant collaborates with an NGO for the welfare of society. The Shrachi group has already shown interest to tie-up with IIT Kharagpur for its WASH (Water, Sanitation, Hygiene) project. More than 50% of the projects are presently active or ready to be operational in the institute which is aligned with the CSR strategies of different companies, an IIT Kharagpur spokesperson said.
To take forward this idea, Rajiv Gandhi School of Intellectual Property Law, IIT Kharagpur is taking a remarkable step by organising a short-term course on Corporate Governance towards Corporate Social Responsibility. This course is open to all faculties from Universities or the institute or interested people from the industry and other organizations. The course is scheduled to be held from 27th November to 2nd December 2017, and the last date for applying to the course is 8th November 2017.

Hello All,
Due to rain, Illumination result stands cancelled but we appreciate the efforts of all the halls which put up such a great show even after unfortunate hindrances
We witnessed many beautiful Rangolis and the result is as follows:
1st Prize: SN/IG and RP
2nd Prize: Patel and JCB
3rd Prize: RK
Our Heartiest Congratulations to all the winners.
Results | Illumination and Rangoli 2017
Continuing the unique tradition of celebrating Diwali with 'Illumination', KGPians have today presented such an extraordinary example of resilience and perseverance that even rain gods weren't able to flinch their indomitable will (read tempo) of the students. Students with full zeal and enthusiasm, drenching in rain but still making every possible effort to light even last of the diyas was certainly a sight to applaud. Though each and every hall showcased best of the Rangolis and Illumination, still the results are as follows:
Rangoli:
Gold - RP Hall and SN/IG Hall
Silver - Patel Hall and JCB Hall
Bronze - RK Hall
Illumination:
The judges felt that it would be unfair to judge the Illuminations because of the fact that some of the halls' illumination faced heavy downpour at the time of judging and it certainly made the illumination competition heavily dependent on the timing of the rain. As per the judges, there wasn't very much scope of judging the Illuminations as some of the halls' weren't able to light their illu, all due to untimely rain. Therefore, results for the Illumination category haven't been declared.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur congratulates each and every member of the KGP community who, despite the adversities, made this celebration a grand success!

"It takes years of hard work to build a tradition like Illumination, but it takes nothing to let it decay into the oblivion", that's what Prof. Somesh Kumar (Dean of Student Affairs, IIT Kharagpur) said when asked about Illumination. He had some words of advice for all the students, especially newly inducted students. He recounts his experience of how people ask him to let them permit into the campus for just one day!

He had some words of advice for all the students, especially newly inducted students. He recounts his experience of how people ask him to let them permit into the campus for just one day! Have a look...
Illumination: The Light in Kgp's Night
As the entire nation is gearing up for one of the most awaited festive moments of the year ‘Diwali’, the students at IIT KGP are pouring their heart out for the preparation of their own unique way of celebrating Diwali, the tradition which they call ‘Illumination’ or just ‘Illu’. For KGP, Illu is Diwali and Diwali is Illu. For the freshers who will be going to witness this trademark celebration of Diwali for the first time, they must be feeling intrigued when they find the air buzzing with ‘illu’. They must be having such questions in their mind like what is it? What’s so special about it? What for our seniors are working so hard? is that effort worth it? And all. As the campus media body of IIT KGP, Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur feels that the tale of this unique tradition must be passed on to the newcomers. So, here is this article on Illumination to let the world know about this masterpiece of KGP students where technology meets tradition.

Illumination with Cubism! Yes, you read that right. Students of the Department of Architecture & Regional Planning - IIT Kharagpur did a project in the course of Basic Design given by Prof. Joy Sen which was based on cubism that meant using linear lines and shapes.
The first year batch was divided into nine groups, each having four members. Each team had to make a model with cubes made with mount boards. On some cubes, some fenestrations or patterned holes were made so that light from the four bulbs inside the model can come out. Each model had about 36-46 cubes of 10 cm sides which were joined to form the Illumination.
The project was supervised by Teaching Assistants Mr. Deepanjan Saha and Ms. Vidhu Vinod Bhushan.
We appreciate this unique and monumental effort of the students and believe that it will take the 'Illumination' culture to new heights!

Badminton players of IIT Kharagpur have made us all proud by securing Silver in the recently concluded Annual Sports Festival of IIT Kanpur i.e., Udghosh, IIT Kanpur. IIT Kharagpur's badminton team consisted of Sayantan Sarkar, Sumit Singh, Abhishek Singhal, Saket Thavanani and Punit Jain.
After topping their pool by winning both the matches, they steamrolled their opponents in pre-quarters and quarters. Then they got past over N.I.E.C. Delhi in semi-final to face host IIT Kanpur in the final. With their valiant efforts, they finally secured the silver medal and carved out a niche of their own!
Also, our Squash team finished fourth and in the process, beat IIT Roorkee in the quarter-finals! Squash team members include Manish Datta, Harsh Saraf and Apurv Dave.
IIT KGP had sent teams for only these two sports. We hope that now more teams will be sent to participate in such competitions and show their mettle.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur congratulates all the winners!

Bitcoin is different than any currency you’ve used before, so it's very important to understand some key points. Unlike government issued money that can be inflated at will, the supply of Bitcoin is mathematically limited to twenty one million bitcoins and that can never be changed.
In our series of "Celebrating the Unconventional", Mr. Sharan Nair(VP, Unocoin) will share the technological, social & economic aspects of Bitcoin & the reasons why it can possibly replace the currencies in our pockets!

When nostalgia bit our alumni to the core, when the past met the present, where old memories were relived and old friendships were renewed: The 14th Annual Alumni Meet gave us everything. From mighty musical nights to cheerful hall visits, the last AAM was a 3 day long bliss for the campus and the alumni together.
This throwback video spans the entire 14th Annual Alumni Meet and we'd like to heartily thank the batches of '67, '77 and '92, who attended this meet.
We also take up the occasion to invite the guests of honour for the 15th AAM, the Golden jubilee batch of 1968, the Ruby jubilee batch of 1978 and the Silver jubilee batch of 1993.
The wheels have been set into motion for the 15th Annual Alumni Meet! :D

In the first decision of its own kind, IIT-Kanpur senate suspended 22 second-year B.Tech students, yesterday, as a punishment after junior students filed a complaint to the Dean of Student Affairs against seniors, saying they were thrashed, abused, and forced to do inhuman acts. The probe committee had found the charges to be true, and recommended the suspension of all 22 students.
"Sixteen students have been suspended for three years and six others for one year,” said Mr. Manindra Agarwal, Deputy Director of IIT Kanpur. In addition, the president and other office bearers of the student gymkhana were removed from their respective posts allegedly for ignoring the complaints as per the reports by Hindustan Times. The suspended students would not have the right to go for a mercy appeal during the suspension period.

The Indian Institutes of Technology seem on the verge of witnessing a protest very soon. This time not by the students but by the faculty members! Yes, Teachers at the Indian Institutes of Technology are set to hold a protest for the first time against the NDA government over its delay in announcing a revised pay package although an expert panel had recommended a revision nearly six months back.
The All India IIT Faculty Federation, which represents nearly 4,000 members, has given the call for the token protest. The last time IIT teachers had protested over pay scales was in 2010 when the UPA was in power. The AIIITFF has written to all the faculty forums at every IIT to hold the protest on Tuesday for an hour from around 5.30pm after working hours. In its communication to the faculty forums, the federation is learnt to have said that the implementation of the seventh pay commission was getting delayed and colleagues across the country were genuinely concerned.

A workshop-cum-cultural programme on ‘Stress Management’ through ‘Sahaja Yoga Meditation’ was organised on Saturday evening at TOAT, IIT Kharagpur by Sahaja Yoga Organisation. The Guest of Honour, Professor Somesh Kumar, Dean (SA) and the Convener, Mr Anirudha Saha (Judge, Jhargram) inaugurated the programme by lightening the lamp. Professor Somesh Kumar introduced the need of Sahaja Yoga Meditation especially for the students to achieve the true excellence in their lives.
“We talk about ‘Atmavishwas’- the self-confidence and ‘Atmasamman’- the self-respect but do we ever think about ‘Atma’ itself?”, with these words, Mr Anirudha Saha underlined the human’s association with the pervading energy in the universe and advocated the regular practice of Sahaja Yoga for the Human Resource Development as well as Management.
Mr Anurag Kushwaha who presently works at DRDO, New Delhi and has been practising Sahaja Yoga Meditation for 15 years, delivered a presentation discussing on how we can achieve the thoughtless awareness through ‘Sahaja Yoga’ leading towards the eternal happiness. He also discussed the science of this method which serves to get back the control over the dormant energy (Kundalini) that resides within ourselves.
The workshop also comprised of cultural performances conveying the art as an indispensable part of Yoga. Mr. Deepak Sharma, a Kathak dancer from the prestigious Lucknow Gharana and his daughter Aarshi Sharma presented stellar dance performances followed by a Rajasthani folk dance staged by Sarita Srivastava. Mr. Deepak Verma, a renowned singer, chanted Bhajans with Mr. Pradyut Kumar Pal playing the Tabla and both creating a delightful environment in the amphitheatre.
Sahaja Yoga Organisation is to arrange for another workshop on Sahaja Yoga Meditation at TOAT, on Sunday at 5pm. Besides, similar sessions for meditation are to be held at Technology Staff Club every Sunday at 10am. We urge the student community to actively take part in such workshops so that the efforts of the institution get repaid in the form of healthy lives of its students.

Indeed a long journey! Sometimes shaky, sometimes steady. But a journey worth documenting!
From earning accolades like “The Nerve of KGP”, “The Voice of KGP”, and many more to always striving to deliver on the expectations in the best way possible, Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur has come a long way, thanks to the unsung efforts of the league of Awaaz ex-chief editors and ex-editors and the current team members as well. This video recognises their efforts, albeit not all, as all those efforts along with the emotions and the craving for the betterment of KGP community is not too easy to depict. Watch out for how Awaaz has made impact in the campus; be it keeping KGP well-informed, or covering issues which need immediate attention from the administration as well (Security issue, Fee hike issue, Issue of cumbersome CV module last year), or running campaigns (Save Electricity Campaign, Clean KGP Campaign), or active reporting on passport bribery issue in the passport office resulting in immediate halt to such malpractices, and many more.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur has always been and will always remain committed to its objective of the betterment of KGP community and sticking to the core values of Constructive journalism. Thank you KGP for all the love and support!
मीडिया' को लोकतंत्र का चौथा स्तम्भ माना जाता रहा है, और माना भी क्यों न जाए? जब सवाल नहीं पूछे जाएँगे तो फिर बिगड़ते काम काज को सुधारने की आवाज़ कौन उठाएगा या जब चीज़ें सही हो रही होंगी तो उसकी प्रशंसा कर उसे लोगो तक कौन पहुँचाएगा?
कहते हैं विचारों को आप मार नहीं सकते; सही ही है| साथ ही जब तक मीडिया और पत्रकारिता का अस्तित्व बचा रहेगा तब तक ये विचार द्रुत गति से फैलते रहेंगे | आज हम ऐसे समय में जी रहे हैं जब वैचारिक असहिष्णुता आम हो गयी है और ऐसे में ज़रूरत होती है एक जागरूक, बेचैन और साहसी तबके की जो हर किस्म की नाइंसाफियों पर बेबाकी से बोले और समाज के हित में पहलुओं का विश्लेषण करे |
आज से दस वर्ष पूर्व खड़गपुर में जब ऐसे तबके की ज़रूरत महसूस हुई तब स्थापना की गयी उत्साह से लबरेज एक टीम की - 'आवाज़', जिसका उद्देश्य था कि वह कैंपस के जन जन की आवाज़ बन जाए | पत्रकारिता में विचारों की जंग होती ही रहती है; पत्रकार का काम ही है कि वो हर पहलू को दिखाए, और इन दस सालों में न जाने हमने कितने महत्त्वपूर्ण पड़ावों को पार किया, न जाने कितनी मुश्किलें झेलीं और आलोचनाएं तो समय समय पर लगी ही रहती हैं |
खैर, आलोचनाएं इस बात का प्रतीक हैं कि हमें ग़म्भीरता से लिया तो जा रहा है, और इनसे प्रेरित होकर हम लगे रहे, और इतिहास इस बात का साक्षी रहा है कि हमने सूरत को बदलने की कोई कसर न छोड़ी | साल दर साल बीतते गए, पर अपने KGP जनता के हित में हमने हरसम्भव मदद करने की कोशिश की | GC से लेकर प्लेसमेंट्स तक- हर खबर का हर पहलू आप तक पहुँचाया गया |
हम वैसे समय में हैं जहाँ पत्रकारिता में हाथ घुमाकर अपनी ही पीठ थपथपाने का प्रचलन बढ़ गया है क्योंकि जनमानस का उत्साहवर्धन क्षीण पड़ता जा रहा है, और हमें गर्व है हमारी टीम पर, टीम के भूतपूर्व सदस्यों पर, टीम को सतत मार्गदर्शन देने वाले शिक्षकों पर और सबसे बढ़कर आप पर, क्योंकि आप ही से तो हमारा वजूद है | हम सभी एक बार पुनः आप सभी जनों का आभार प्रकट करते हैं और आशा करते हैं कि आगे भी यह सहयोग बना रहेगा |

Do you know that a KGPian is one of the project team members of the MIT Hyperloop team who won the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition Design phase held in January 2016 and member of its Electrical sub-team which integrates the electrical subsystem into the pod? And currently, he is working in the Low Voltage Electronics Integration team of Tesla! He graduated in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur (2010-14) with a staggering CGPA of 9.63 which fetched him the “President of India Gold Medal” for the highest CGPA among the graduating batch. Not only that, he also received “Dr. B.C. Roy Memorial Gold Medal” for being the best all-rounder student in the graduating batch.

What do you see in this picture? KGP Water Polo team collecting their Runners-up trophy and medals in the recently concluded Inter IIT Aquatics Meet. Right? But it's more than what meets the eyes! They were collecting it with heavy hearts, with a bit gloomy emotions all around, bit dejected and feeling not-so-good about not being able to win the final. But what did actually happen?
They outplayed IIT Guwahati by 11-0, beat the favourites i.e., host IIT Madras by 5-4 and drew valiantly with IIT Bombay by 4-4. In semifinal, they made a mockery of it by winning it with a score of 10-2.
In finals, they were lagging behind with a score of 2-3. And not to forget, they were two times defending champions! Chips were down. The chances of winning the gold again looked bleak. But that's exactly when they bounced back in style to make a stunning comeback and levelled the score! It went down to penalties. They were still in the game and did a brilliant job by holding the opposition on tie, given that opposition had one of the best goalkeepers of the tournament. It then went down to 'sudden death' and they lost it by just a whisker!
Does the story end here? No, certainly not! They gave it their everything, every ounce of energy that their body had, every drop of sweat that they could have offered and showcased indomitable will, grit, determination and strength! It was the culmination of hours long practice sessions and rigorous training schedules.
And it's not only the Water Polo team, it has been the same with all other members of our contingent. They all have tried their best and left no stones unturned in bringing laurels to KGP. Be it silver or bronze or even no medal, it's not the medals for which they deserve applause, it's their sincere efforts that deserves tonnes of pats on their backs!
Let's take a moment and appreciate what they have achieved and accomplished. Let's applaud their collective efforts irrespective of what's the colour of the medal.
We all KGPians are indeed proud of you all, team KGP! Well done!

We all KGPians are indeed proud of you all, team KGP! Well done!
It's now or never!
The administration is in the process of revamping the existing curriculum and offering its students a potentially state-of-the-art type of curriculum. And this is happening after almost 8-9 years. It's now up to all the KGPians to let their suggestions heard and get the curriculum updates as per the changing times!
Remeber that the deadline is 8th October.

Time flies, memories remain. Sad Partings pave the way for jolly reunions. Just 100 days remain for the alumni to return back to their theatre of dreams and to feel the rhythm of nostalgia pulsating through them. It's time for new memories to be made and the tempo of KGP to be made high again by the ones who were moulded by the same tempo.
100 days to go for the 15th Annual Alumni Meet. Countdown? It has already begun!

Entrepreneurship Cell, IIT Kharagpur wishes you all on the birth anniversary of the nation's father, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
Let us follow the path of truth and wisdom and pay homage to our Father of Nation this day!
The 33rd Inter IIT Aquatics Meet ‘17 being held at IIT Madras was flagged off yesterday with a speech by Chief Guest Mr.Rehan Poncha, a five-time national champion and Arjuna Award winner, along with a diving performance and an act by Mr.Preveen Pandita, an illusionist.
With Day 2 almost coming to a close, KGP is giving its all to bring home the coveted cup. While the Water-Polo team is going strong with two wins, the Swimming team is having a tough time facing the stiff competition. Our current medal tally consists of a silver and bronze, bagged by the men’s and women’s contingents respectively. The finals of todays events are currently underway.
We’d like to throw some light on the general structure of the tournament. We have posted below a day wise consolidated list of the events in both the categorized events – Swimming and Water Polo.
The swimming events kick off early in the morning every day, with trials/heats held in the first half to screen the teams, out of which the top 8 contenders qualify for the finals of the respective events, which would be held in the later half of the day. This will continue for all the 4 days.
While on the other side, 4 Water Polo matches are held everyday – with each of the eight teams facing one opponent from their respective pools. The 4th day will witness the winners of each pool face the runners-up of the other pool respectively for the semifinal matches, the losers of these semis will fight for the 3rd place and the most awaited finals will be held thereafter.
We wish our KGP contingent the very best for the rest of the tournament and hope to see them shine brightly in every one of the events.
Stay tuned for more updates on the standings and results!

The Saudi Royal family has ruled a decision that may change the lives of millions of women in Saudi Arabia. The decision to let women drive is being praised by human rights activists and industries alike. It is not only a step towards equality for women in Saudi Arabia but also an opportunity for the automotive industry to explore more customers. However, as positive as it may seem, a decision helping thousands of women may hurt giant service providers like Uber. Read on to find out more.
A big decision coming from the Saudi Royal family is definitely a life changing one for millions of women of Saudi Arabia. Hailing it a big success, the human rights activists think that it will make the women of Saudi Arabia more independent. On the other hand, the decision is being seen as an opportunity for the automotive industry. The decision has opened customers counting to almost half the population of the Gulf nation. Now that women can drive, the decision appears to be a threat for the cab hailing services like Uber which also suffered a major setback by its license suspension in London. Read on to find out the impact of the decision in the automotive industry in the country.

|| Foreign Training Guide ||
Foreign Training (FT) is one of the most sought after opportunities for the students, especially those who are interested in pursuing research. Along with providing great research opportunities to the students, a Foreign Training Internship also helps them in inculcating leadership qualities and give an experience about new places and cultures.
By this time, students tend to start working on how to get an FT. However, many students are not well informed about how to begin with the process.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur presents to you all the basic guide on how to apply for Foreign Training and we hope that it will prove to be quite insightful as it has been for the previous batches.
This article provides the students an insight into the entire process of applying for Foreign Internship, either through Research Programs or through the regular process of mailing the professors in an efficient and streamlined manner.
We would also like to point out that one should not blindly go for an FT under the impression of just getting a good point to add to his/her resume. Students should also look into the research projects and similar opportunities at our own institute and get involved in them as well.

Engineers are not superhuman. They make mistakes in their assumptions, in their calculations, in their conclusions. That they make mistakes is forgivable; that they catch them is imperative. Thus it is the essence of modern engineering not only to be able to check one's work but also to have one's work checked and to be able to check the work of others.

On this platform, users can connect with fellow foodies and share their experiences, recommend their favourite eating places to their friends and followers, and help add a place to the network’s database. It also allows eateries (restaurants, cafes, bars, pubs and others) from any location with internet access to join the platform and connect with their customers and keep them engaged and updated about all their activities in real time.

The administration is in the process of revamping the existing curriculum and offering its students a potentially state-of-the-art type of curriculum. The recently held Senate has decided to invite views from all the stakeholders in order to accommodate all possible suggestions and revise the curriculum for the academic year 2018-19 and beyond accordingly. In this regard, a feedback form has been designed by the consensus of UG Senate Representative and all UG council members. The link to the form is given below and the students are requested to fill the form before the deadline of 5th October 2017.
https://goo.gl/forms/7O94...
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur appreciates this move from the administration and urges the student community to actively be a part of this feedback mechanism by ensuring that you are filling it with seriousness and dedication. First and second year students might not have an idea about some of the queries related to projects, industry exposure, etc. and they can gather the information regarding it from relevant sources. All the students are requested to devote some time, suggest even the minute details and help the administration make the revamp a successful one. The fact that such revamp is happening after almost a decade and there are minimal chances that a big revamp would occur in near future after this, so everyone should make the best use of the opportunity and help IIT Kharagpur and upcoming generation of students reap the benefits of your experiences and ideas.
It is advisable to go through the academic curriculum of some of the elite universities and suggest accordingly. We must ponder over the question that why the courses on the educational platforms like coursera, edx, etc. seem to attract so many students and why we can’t make our courses interesting enough for the students to motivate them to attend the classes. Inputs from everyone among the student community matters. Here we provide some of the links to the course structure of some of the elite universities.
https://www.stanford.edu/...
http://catalog.mit.edu/su...
https://www.si.umich.edu/...
We hope that the administration also ropes in the alumni who have studied under the present curriculum and can give insights about how those courses are helping them in current situations and how the improvements can be brought forth.
Dear UG Students,
Greetings from Dean (UGS) Office!
We are in the process of revamping the existing curriculum and in this connection recently held senate; it was decided to have views from all the stake holders about the revised curricula to be implemented from Academic Year 2018-19 which will be potentially state-of-the-art type of curriculum.
Kindly feel free to give your constructive critical inputs in the following form and be a part of this change.
The google form link is https://goo.gl/forms/7O94...
The deadline is 5th October 2017.

A team of researchers at IIT Kharagpur has developed a solution to prevent hacking into the devices supporting the Internet of Things (IoT). With the products enabled with internet connectivity facilitating our lives, their security has also become a major concern. This method binds a Wi-Fi camera with its PUF (Physically Unclonable Function)-based identity, a solution of which is inevitable to connect with the receiver PC and thus depriving an attacker of the access to the PC.

The IITs have revoked a ban, which they had imposed on 30 companies, mostly start-ups, barring them from participating in their campus placements.
The decision to revoke the ban was taken unanimously on Wednesday at a meeting of the All-IIT Placement Committee (AIPC).
The AIPC had blacklisted these companies, including healthcare services provider Portea Medical, food-tech company Zomato and online seller of baby-care products Hopscotch, in August 2016, after they withdrew the job offers they had made to the students.

An open letter from one of our alumni regarding the recent happenings in IIT Kharagpur. Do give it a read.
KGP has not been in a very brilliant place on social media in the past week and we as the campus newsbody, will be expressing our opinions on that matter too.
In the meanwhile, however, here's an Open Letter from Poonam Gupta, an alumna from the Batch of 2017, on that whole issue that sums up the views of a lot of the alumni about the issue.
We would love to start a constructive discussion in the comments section regarding this.

|| Google Code Jam ||
As you might be aware, Google is conducting Kickstart 2017 ( https://code.google.com/c... ) (formerly known as the APAC University Test), a 2Code Jam competition for university students to improve their technical skills and apply for career opportunities with Google. The next round is scheduled for September 24th.
1) Prepare with a codelab (duration ~2-3 hours)
We've prepared a small codelab (a tutorial combining explanation, working example code, and code exercise) to cover some basic algorithms which will help in the upcoming Code Jam Kickstart (CJK) rounds. Even if you do not plan to participate in the upcoming rounds, the codelab should help brush up basics for other algorithmic contests and interviews.
For the codelab, you would need an internet connection and basic programming skills in a language of your choice, and of course, a little enthusiasm and energy to get through the codelab. We recommend having facilitators (a faculty or a fellow student) who can help if needed, and pursue the codelab as a group exercise. If you're a facilitator, it would be nice to brush up some combinatorics, dynamic programming (DP) and geometry skills. The time it would take a student to finish the codelab would depend on their current understanding and skill, but to err on the safe side, be ready to put in 2-3 hours.
2) Sign-up for the Codelab by 20th Sep
Please sign-up via this form ( https://docs.google.com/f... ) and we will send you the codelab material via email. We recommend that you work on the codelab in groups so that it's both fun and you can learn from one another. And plan on having a facilitator (a faculty or a fellow student) who can help if needed.
Feedback/Questions
When we send the codelab via email, we will also send a link to a feedback form. Any concepts that are difficult or if you have questions about specific problems, please share/ask via the feedback form. We will address them as part of a livestream that we are hosting in the first week of October.
Post September 24th
We will host a Youtube livestream, in which we'll cover questions/concepts asked in the codelab exercise, discuss problems from a previous CJK round, common tips and tricks, strategies and general Q&A regarding CJK. We will share the livestream link with everyone who signs up for the codelab.

The campus has seen a grave concern over LAN and WiFi speed from the beginning of this semester and recently, a petition regarding the same on change.org has also been doing rounds. And many students have also emailed their grievances to CIC. Here's what CIC Network Support team has replied with:
Dear All,
This is in connection with the recent performance of campus network, especially the response time of internet access. We have received some emails from students of different halls regarding the slow response of internet access. Our team also started visiting all Halls to check the response time via LAN as well as wireless. Depending on the problem observed we will take care all of them individually and try to sort out at the earliest.
In view of the above, you are requested to send emails regarding the network accessibility issues, slightly in details, observed in your Hall to helpdesk@cc.iitkgp.ernet.in. It may be in any particular wing/ rooms/area or may be in LAN/Wi-Fi in some of the rooms, mentioning room nos./contact nos. etc. It will help us to identify and solve the issues in each and every hall separately.
We hope that this issue will be resolved at the earliest! Students are requested to send emails stating their concern as directed above.

A petition regarding the poor internet speed in the campus on change.org is gaining traction and currently has a supporters' count of 935. This issue is certainly one which needs immediate action. One of the reporters in our team complained that in the library, the internet speed is so slow that it took 15 mins to sign the petition itself! This is a phenomenal example of the issue fighting the cause and not the other way around (and of bad humor too). Anyways, this is the link to the petition: http://chn.ge/2xcSfyJ

Escalation.
From quiet interruptions, the pace slowly quickens towards boorish rebuttals and personal attacks. Tempers rise, ready to explode at the drop of a hat. Slurs are heaped mercilessly and before you know it, there's kicking and scratching and a full scale brawl. Well, almost.
But that right there?
That is everything we are not. Join us, and you'll see for yourself.
Pro.Verb 2017.
Debating done right.

Engineering Students- A unique race of students who know how to procrastinate and still manage things on time. These people can survive on maggi for a semester, and won't go near the mess of a Mess.
All heroes don't wear capes. Some wear a single shirt throughout the semester.

We at Students' Alumni Cell feel proud in launching our latest initiative of 'Alumni career Assistance Program (ACAP)'. This program directly aims at assisting the students sitting for placements by allotting them an alumnus placed 1-2 years back at the company that they're aiming at for placements. The allotted alumnus will act both as a mentor and a buddy and will step by step guide the student through all the confusing placement procedures and also assist in the preparation stage.
We feel that this initiative will greatly help the students at probably one of their most crucial stages in KGP and at the same time will also mark the engagement of the alumni with their alma mater right from the start!
Both alumni and students are requested to follow the link and register with their details:

By 2022, one-third of students across Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) should be women and that’s the aim for the current government in its mission to empower women and rectify the gender imbalance across top science and engineering institutes across the country. Right now, women make up just about 8 % of the student population across the 23 IITs.
Department of Science and Technology is going to hold camps at the district levels to teach 50,000 senior secondary girls for IIT JEE as well as convince their parents.

The 65th Inter Hall Athletics came to a splendid end with miraculous performances by the athletes and saw a smooth conduction throughout all three days.

The event saw the esteemed presence of dignitaries like Dean (UGS), Dean of Students' Affairs and President (TSG) who gave away the medals to athletes and lifted their spirits.
Also, some of the scenes on the ground were testimony of the sportsman spirit that we KGPians have. While dignitaries were awarding Abin, Sairam, Gaurav and many more athletes the medals, each and every member of all the hall teams gave them standing ovation in unison! It definitely speaks volumes about the sportsman spirit that we have developed over the years, given some unfortunate events that happened last semester.

On the occasion of World Suicide Prevention Day 2017, TLS presents to you all a beautiful hybrid composition by Yash Shukla
----
There will be days,
When you’ll feel, you possess nothing.
Deprived of love, trust, faith, hope
And all the feelings which constitute everything.
Those lonely times when
you’ll hate yourself the most,
mind will take absurd decisions
no matter how much it’ll cost.
ख्यालों के शहर में ख्वाबों की कब्र होगी,
खुशियों के रास्तों पर ग़म की गश्त होगी,
खामोश चीखों की पुरज़ोर गूंज होगी,
न जाने फिर कब लफ़्ज़ों में आवाज़ होगी।
मन शायद तुमसे बस यही सवाल पूछेगा,
क्या कभी इस रात की सुबह होगी।
But hold on, hold on for a moment.
Do you really want to die
Or again are these the external hopes
which are making your life a lie.
Because you think once you’re gone
they’ll talk fondly of you.
They’ll conclude whether it was
academic pressure or recession that killed you
or it was the black hole of competition
which finally consumed you.
पर,
उन कविताओं का क्या होगा जो तुमने लिखीं थी,
कैनवास की उस पेंटिंग का क्या होगा जो तुमने बुनी थी,
बचपन के सपनों की उस डोर का क्या होगा
जो तुम्हारी नींद से जुडी थीं,
साँसों की वो हवा भी बेकार हो जाएगी जो तुम्हारे हिस्से में लिखी थी।
वो कौन से ऐसी बात है जो जता देगी
कि तुम्हारी ज़िन्दगी जीने के लिए काबिल न थी।
Every time, this beast kills someone
in every 40th second,
imagine you’re not the only one, many are the
victims of this trend.
So when those days will make you weak,
just go to your friend and speak.
क्योंकि क्या पता ज़िन्दगी का यह मोड़
तुम्हे मौत से कुछ दिन बाद मिलवाये,
वो जो मकसद है जिसके लिए तुम आये हो
इस जहाँ में,
यह तुमको उसके और करीब ले जाए।

On the occasion of World Suicide Prevention Day 2017, TLS presents to you all a beautiful hybrid composition by Yash Shukla
----
There will be days,
When you’ll feel, you possess nothing.
Deprived of love, trust, faith, hope
And all the feelings which constitute everything.
Those lonely times when
you’ll hate yourself the most,
mind will take absurd decisions
no matter how much it’ll cost.
ख्यालों के शहर में ख्वाबों की कब्र होगी,
खुशियों के रास्तों पर ग़म की गश्त होगी,
खामोश चीखों की पुरज़ोर गूंज होगी,
न जाने फिर कब लफ़्ज़ों में आवाज़ होगी।
मन शायद तुमसे बस यही सवाल पूछेगा,
क्या कभी इस रात की सुबह होगी।
But hold on, hold on for a moment.
Do you really want to die
Or again are these the external hopes
which are making your life a lie.
Because you think once you’re gone
they’ll talk fondly of you.
They’ll conclude whether it was
academic pressure or recession that killed you
or it was the black hole of competition
which finally consumed you.
पर,
उन कविताओं का क्या होगा जो तुमने लिखीं थी,
कैनवास की उस पेंटिंग का क्या होगा जो तुमने बुनी थी,
बचपन के सपनों की उस डोर का क्या होगा
जो तुम्हारी नींद से जुडी थीं,
साँसों की वो हवा भी बेकार हो जाएगी जो तुम्हारे हिस्से में लिखी थी।
वो कौन से ऐसी बात है जो जता देगी
कि तुम्हारी ज़िन्दगी जीने के लिए काबिल न थी।
Every time, this beast kills someone
in every 40th second,
imagine you’re not the only one, many are the
victims of this trend.
So when those days will make you weak,
just go to your friend and speak.
क्योंकि क्या पता ज़िन्दगी का यह मोड़
तुम्हे मौत से कुछ दिन बाद मिलवाये,
वो जो मकसद है जिसके लिए तुम आये हो
इस जहाँ में,
यह तुमको उसके और करीब ले जाए।

With the declaration of 65th Interhall Athletics Meet open, a magnanimous participation was witnessed in all the events. The stadium experienced decent turnout of the crowd cheering for their Halls of Residence. Yesterday, it all started with Junior Men & Women events in 800 meters. SN Hall of Residence performed exceptionally well by bagging a total of 3 medals in Junior Women category. MS Hall, the defending champions of GC Athletics Men, left everyone speechless by securing a total of 5 medals, all the three in the senior category and gold & silver in the junior category. Manish Singh Rana (MMM Hall) managed to win the gold for his hall of residence in both 800 m and 1500 m. Lokesh Reddi and Gaurav Shenoy were among the few names who secured medals in every event they participated and left no stone unturned to contribute towards the sport. Among girls, Bharti Kushal Sharma, Dimple Kapadia, and Hima Swetha showed outstanding performances. In Men JR category, Sagar Kongari, Eslavatha Jaga Deesh, and Sumit Gaurav have shown exceptional performances by winning more than one medal for their respective halls.
MS Hall continues its legacy in GC Athletics by scoring a sum of 53 points on Day 1 and Day 2. According to the current tally of points, the competition for the second position is too fierce with the difference of just one point between RP (14 Points) and LBS (13 Points). In GC Athletics women’s category, SN Hall of Residence is leading others with 30 points. Junior events, however, with the contribution of no points in General Championship, were also quite successful with the active participation in Men’s category.
With the showcase of such fine performances, we expect the events will exhibit the same enthusiasm and sportsmanship and Day 3 will witness wonders. Here are the comprehensive results of events till now.

Greetings from Teach For India!
Did you know?
In India, 4% of all children never start school
52% of 5th Standard students in a low income government school cannot read a 2nd standard textbook
48% of children drop out of school by 5th Standard
76% of students do not complete school and do not make it to college
How can I sign up for the information session?
The 2018 Fellowship Application is now live and we are hoping to recruit leaders from your college for a 2 year, full time paid commitment.
We are going to be presenting at IIT Kharagpur on 7th Sept 2017
Just after a slip in the QS and THE world rankings, the IITs received a huge setback when the Finance Ministry turned down the proposal of MHRD to allocate Rs 8,700 crores to enhance their global standings. The Finance Ministry was of the opinion that the premiere institutes should first address “fundamental issues” such as the autonomy to fix fees, raising resources from corporate houses and alumni members, and strengthening existing schemes.
Under Project Vishwajeet, which was cleared last year by the IIT council, the top seven IITs were supposed to use the funds (Rs 1,250 crores each over a five-year period) to upgrade their infrastructure, hire foreign faculty members, tie up with international institutions and adopt a host of other measures for improving their QS and Times global institution rankings. As no Indian Institute could make it into top 200, it certainly proved that things were not going right and there were points to ponder over!
In its note, the finance ministry also recommended that the human resource development ministry should ask IITs to construct world-class laboratories through existing grants or the recently launched Institute of Eminence scheme. Under the Institute of Eminence scheme, 10 select government institutes will be given approximately Rs 1,000 crores. "The finance ministry has suggested that the IITs should compete for that scheme instead of expecting funds through the Vishwajeet project,” an official said.

The Times Higher Education (THE) rankings 2018 of the world’s top 1,000 universities in 77 countries was published yesterday and didn't pan out well for Indian institutions. Most of the Indian Institutes dropped down the ranking list as compared to previous year. Indian Institute of Science (IISc) slipped from the 201-250 band to 251-300. IIT Delhi, Kanpur and Madras came down to the 501–600 band from last year’s 401-500 rankings. IIT Kharagpur remained in 501-600 band as was the case last year.
Times Higher Education attributed this dismal showing to “drops in research influence score and research income,” and said most of the institutes “performed poorly on the internationalisation pillar.” The number of international students coming into India was limited. International scholars also were not being hired for long-term faculty positions.
“China, Hong Kong and Singapore all invest very heavily in their university systems. This year, almost all universities in the three regions improved their standing in the ranking, signalling that their commitment to investment has bolstered results year-on-year,” Phil Baty, editorial director, Global Rankings, THE, said. He said that things were likely to improve because of the “really positive news in that India’s overall research income and research quality has risen this year, and the country’s world class university plan shows that it recognises the importance of investing in higher education.”
Here. we present to you a comparison of QS Rankings and THE Rankings of 2017 as well as 2018.

"गुरू कुम्हार शिष कुंभ है, गढि़ गढि़ काढ़ै खोट।
अन्तर हाथ सहार दै, बाहर बाहै चोट।।"
Famous Hindi Poet Kabirdas says, "A teacher is actually a potter who very cautiously turns a lump of soil into a beautiful pot. His outer behaviour may be a little bit tough in order to teach us with discipline, but his inner love for his students is sumptuous. Just like a potter hits the under-construction pot from outside, but one hand is always inside it to support it."

"गुरू कुम्हार शिष कुंभ है, गढि़ गढि़ काढ़ै खोट।
अन्तर हाथ सहार दै, बाहर बाहै चोट।।"
Famous Hindi Poet Kabirdas says, "A teacher is actually a potter who very cautiously turns a lump of soil into a beautiful pot. His outer behaviour may be a little bit tough in order to teach us with discipline, but his inner love for his students is sumptuous. Just like a potter hits the under-construction pot from outside, but one hand is always inside it to support it."

IIT Kharagpur has yet again come forward to help the society. As always, it has developed a technology for the safety of commuters during foggy, rainy days. KGP researchers have come up with a solution to obscure road view to drivers during bad weather. Detection of nearby objects would become easier with this visual technology that removes rain from real time videos. Do give a read of the link below to know the details of the technology developed.

“There are two kinds of teachers: the kind that fill you with so much quail shot that you can't move, and the kind that just give you a little prod behind and you jump to the skies.”- Robert Frost.
With the hope that all our teachers belong to the latter kind, Students' Alumni Cell, IIT Kharagpur wishes you all a Happy Teacher's Day!
"A teacher is not the one who knows the most but the one who makes you realise your utmost potential and directs you best in your path."
Thanks to all teachers for their selfless service to shape the future of this world!

Teachers not only teach us, but also mould us into what we will become and show us what we can do if we put our minds to it. A good teacher can inspire us to achieve our dreams and a bad one can scar us for life; a testament to the power they have over us.
On the occasion of Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan's 129th Birthday, we at The Scholars' Avenue would like to wish all the professors of IIT Kharagpur and all the teachers of India a very Happy Teacher's Day!
P.S: A senior of this commenter once said that just greetings won't do. Let's pledge to value the teachers here by not dropping classes after two weeks in the semester and then complaining. We agree that it would be a pretty nice thing to do. After all, for all the 8 AM and 5 PM classes we haven't gone to, they have been present regardless. :')
In what seemed to many a not-so-anticipated as well as surprisingly pleasant gesture, the campus was abuzz with the talks of Zakir Khan being in the campus doing the rounds yesterday! Slowly and steadily, the news broke out and KGPians were all excited to get a glimpse of the rising star of Indian Comedy i.e., Zakir Khan, popularly known as "Sakht Launda" whose heart never melts, no matter what!
In a unique and first of its own kind of initiative, Vice President (Technology Students' Gymkhana, IIT Kharagpur) i.e., Mayank Srivastava under the tutelage of TSG had contacted Zakir Khan requesting him to pay a visit to our campus. And he accepted it gleefully. There have been incidents of many celebrities visiting the campus but this one was something that KGP has never witnessed before! You come out of your room and take a stroll towards the entrance gate only to find Zakir Khan in front of you! You rub your eyes in disbelief but finally, you realize that it's reality! Needless to say, this has been an epic experience for many.
He visited Nehru Hall of Residence and interacted with students. A lot of funny moments and light conversations followed. Students were visibly excited and pleased to the core. Zakir didn't let the moment slip and tried his hands on bat-ball making it a "moment-hai-bhai-moment-hai" moment! There were plans to visit LLR hall as well but unfortunately, he wasn't able to.
Though he was here for a short period of time, he left behind smiles on hundreds of faces and that's what was the motive behind this initiative. In last one year, our campus has seen some unfortunate events happening and this was the perfect plan to boost the dampening spirit of the people.
We would like to thank all the stakeholders who were involved in this, especially VP, TSG who put all their efforts to execute this idea. We, on the behalf of entire campus, would also like to thank Zakir Khan from the core of our hearts for taking out some time of his busy schedule and making this campus livelier with his presence.

Zakir's Surprise Visit to the Campus!
-------------------------------------------------------------
In an unprecedented move among the recent times, our beautiful campus was blessed today with what one may call a "Happiness Visit" (term coined courtesy of a fellow KGPian). Our institute has always been the unprecedented one - even during birth and even now. But a slight tumor has started to grow, something we have recognised as a universal sin plaguing the entirety of this generation and now it's caught us in its whimsical hands. Over the past few months, our campus had the most misfortune to witness the demise of a fraction of our student community, tiny in number but gigantic in worth. It's no easy feat to recuperate from such mental fractures, but all it takes is just a little push, in the right direction, to build bridges to paradise. This is exactly what we've set in motion, if we as eyes of the campus, read right today's move.
In a secretive partnership, our VP - Mayank Srivastava along with TSG had talks with Zakir Khan, the rising face of comedy in the country, and asked him to pay a surprise visit to KGP, and Zakir accepted with much humility. He did visit before, but never like this. What we read is an initiative to make people experience the feeling of unbridled happiness, happiness that is sometimes born out of surprise, or of not knowing something. We can sure as hell imagine everyone going frantically through their Facebook Timelines not really sure whether the video of Zakir sitting there, in Nehru, in between a circle of enthused students, chatting on ignoring all the cameras about him, is true or just an elaborate prank. Incidentally Zakir is shooting a series of videos which have a similar morbid theme covered, whilst with big scoops of humanity poured into them. All you guys lucky enough to have firsthand experienced that joy, you might want to stay glued to Zakir Khan on social network sites.
It's a no brainer to connect the dots now. This moment should be remembered as one which should reinforce our firm belief in our administration, and more importantly, life again, and most importantly push us towards the end of the dark tunnel that we've gotten stuck in.
Zakir will leave by a flight tonight, pertinently unaware of the hidden blessing in what he had done, and probably and promptly laying down the road to more such wonderful surprises.
We really applaud the thinking and effort that went behind such an endeavor, mainly the VP, who seized the right moment by its throbbing vein. We would very much like to see more such meaningful and brilliant moves in the future.

The institute has officially relaxed the ban on conducting trials in halls of residence for the purpose of participation in various Open IIT and inter-hall events. The message was conveyed via an email from the Dean of Student Affairs, Prof. Somesh Kumar and has instructed that decorum may be maintained through the length of sessions. The move follows an apparent state of complete lack of communication between seniors and juniors in halls following the original ban. The message also encouraged students to participate in events like Illumination and Rangoli. The hall council members are required to document the activities and present it to VP/warden/asst. warden.

Researchers from the Department of Electronics and Electrical Communications, IIT Kharagpur have developed a visual technology that enables safer driving during rains. The technology removes from real-time video the obscuring effects of rain and displays it on the windscreen of vehicles to increase the clarity of driver’s view. Thus, it aims to enhance the transportation safety by providing on-screen visualization of clear videos in typical conditions.

The event was conducted in association with ‘Skill India’ and MHRD.

The students of the Department of Architecture & Regional Planning - IIT Kharagpur have come up with a unique idea of tackling the problem of making choices which make us feel happy.
The Project titled “Happiness Project: What Made Me” is one among the three submissions from IIT Kharagpur for the prestigious Annual NASA Design Competition (ANDC). The problem statement was “We often turn a blind eye to unused/disused public spaces around us. Can Schools of Architecture create a positive social impact on these derelict urban spaces, by redesigning alternative spaces to have a larger social impact and to rebuild and improve them with small interventions?”
Our team found out the details about the project and have formulated the same in this report. Do give it a read.

The Embassy of Sweden in India on 28th August organized Kolkata regional round of the eleventh edition of Sweden India Nobel Memorial quiz.
The theme of the quiz is Sweden, its history, culture and innovations, Nobel Prizes and the life and works of Alfred Nobel. Four teams from IIT KGP went to Kolkata for participating in the quiz. The cutoff of the prelims was 16 out of 25, and all KGP teams scored more than the cutoff but only one could proceed to the finals due to one team per institute rule. The quiz master seemed pretty impressed with the prowess of KGP teams and said that preparedness of KGP students is on another level.
In the finals, an IIT KGP team consisting of Amit Kumar Ram, Shreyans Sadangi and Piyush Kedia came on top, beating ISI and Heritage.
They will participate in the National finals in the first week of October in the Sweden India Nobel Memorial week. In 2013, a team from IIT KGP won the national finals; we hope the feat is repeated this year.
The Scholars' Avenue congratulates the winners and wishes them all the best for the upcoming finals.

Students of IIT Kharagpur have again shown their mettle in quizzing and have made the quizzing circle across the country feel their dominant presence. A team of three IIT Kharagpur students Piyush Kedia, Shreyans Sadangi and Amit Kumar Ram won the recently concluded Kolkata regionals of Sweden India Nobel Memorial Quiz and advanced to the finals to be conducted on 11th October in Delhi. Out of more than 60 teams that participated in the regional round, only 6 teams made it to the finals. This quiz is conducted in 11 cities across India. In 2015 also, a team from IIT Kharagpur had won the Kolkata regionals. The stellar performance of KGPians can be gauged from the fact that all four teams from KGP actually advanced to the finals, but the rules had a stipulation that only one team from each college can be allowed to advance to the finals.
The Embassy of Sweden organises one of India’s most prestigious quiz contests annually – The Sweden-India Nobel Memorial Quiz. The quiz series is part of the Sweden India Nobel Memorial Week – now in its eleventh year.
The broad theme of the quiz is Alfred Nobel and his life and achievements, the Nobel Prize, Nobel Laureates and their achievements, Sweden, its people and their culture, Swedish innovations and inventions. Members of the winning team win a week-long visit to Sweden where they will visit Swedish companies, universities and the Nobel Museum.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur congratulates all of them for their marvellous performance and wishes them all the best for finals!

With the increasing confusion in KGPians about cementing a career path for themselves, Students' Alumni Cell takes up the opportunity in bringing to you the guest lecture by Mr Abhinav Sinha CH | Nehru | 2003 and Mr Arnav Kumar MA | RP | 2010 on 'Career Trajectory Mastery'.
2nd September, 6 PM at Ben Gupta Auditorium, Rajiv Gandhi School of Intellectual Law and Property (near Vikramshilla Complex). Be there!
Students' Alumni Cell has always striven to bring forward the knowledge and experience of our alumni to the students in the form of guest lectures. Here you'll find the diversity of some guest lectures organized by us till yet. You must stay tuned for one of our better guest lectures about to be unveiled soon!
Digitized medium is what students can relate to today. Internet has become the hub of video lectures, notes and educational pdf documents. Students hardly feel the urge to take the heavy books down from the shelves and do the effort to read it. We have soft copies of everything. The government of India is wise enough to promote this attitude. It has called upon the heads of all universities to get their library stuff digitised. National Digital Library is supposed to host the digitised study materials on its page. Do give a read of the link below to know how IIT Kharagpur is involved in this effort.

Aerial Robotics, Kharagpur (ARK) took part in its second International Aerial Robotics Competition attempt ever over the past weekend, in Beijing, after last year's debut when it was the first ever Indian team from an IIT to take part in the IARC. A total of 13 teams participated. The mission this year, the seventh mission so far, has been on the board since 2014, and wasn't completed this year as well, although one team came close. This time around, with better preparation compared to last year, ARK performed significantly better, grabbing the interest of a lot of people and nabbing the Most Innovative Design Award for their hexcopter, dubbed 'Falcon'.
The team when asked for comment, had the following words, 'We are attempting to enter a field where other countries and labs have been making optimisations in for multiple years and this gives us the opportunity to learn a lot from our peers. We're confident of a better showing at the next edition and hopefully to actually achieve the competition aim of successfully completing the multi year task.'

We feel extremely sorrowful to inform the demise of Dr. Joydip Bhattacharjee. He drowned trying to save his four-year old child in Kharagpur's Golghoria area. This truly is a loss to the nation. Dr. Bhattacharjee was working in areas like water waves, wave-structure interaction and wave energy devices. He completed his Ph.D. from IIT KGP itself in the year 2008. The Scholars' Avenue extends grievances to the family of Dr. Bhattacharjee.

"It was started as an attempt to create an avenue to meet interesting people doing their own interesting thing and formed a place where people could meet with their own pet projects and help each other. Since then, it has grown to over 3000 articles with contributions by hundreds of KGPians, and more than 500 unique users visiting every day..."
Don't know what we're talking about? Here's your guide to MetaKGP.
In a news that comes as an utter shock to the entire KGP community, Prof. Joydip Bhattacharjee (Ocean Engg and Naval Architecture) is sadly no more among us. He got drowned in a large water filled ditch today while trying to rescue his 4-year-old child who had fallen into the water body near the campus. Local people took him and his son out of the water and took them to the hospital where he was declared brought dead while his son has been released after first aid. He had gone out for a ride with his son and daughter to Kharagpur's Gholgeria where the accident happened. According to witnesses, the son accidentally fell into the water and Dr. Bhattacharjee jumped in to save him.
Entire KGP community mourns the untimely loss of such a talented and beloved professor. We extended our deep condolences to his family and hope that our prayers will give them the strength to bear this huge loss.

मानव संसाधन विकास मंत्रालय (भारत सरकार) ने यह निर्णय लिया है कि सभी इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेजों में प्रवेश के लिए एक संयुक्त प्रवेश परीक्षा का विचार अगले वर्ष धरातल पर नहीं उतर पायेगा | हालाँकि उन्होंने पूरे विचार को एक सिरे से खारिज नहीं किया है, बल्कि आगे इस पर चर्चा जारी रहेगी | गौरतलब हो कि ऑल इंडिया कौंसिल ऑफ़ टेक्निकल एजुकेशन ने इस वर्ष मार्च में वर्ष 2018 से इंजीनियरिंग संस्थानों में नामांकन हेतु राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर एक संयुक्त प्रवेश करवाने की बात कही थी | कौंसिल अभी भी इस विचार की संभावनाओं पर चर्चा कर रही है | ज्ञातव्य हो कि जेईई के अलावा बहुत सारे प्रदेश और निजी संस्थान स्वयं ही अपनी अपनी प्रवेश परीक्षा आयोजित करते हैं |
The HRD Ministry has decided to put the plans of introducing a common engineering entrance exam from next year on hold. Earlier, the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) had announced in March that a national-level common entrance examination for engineering colleges would be conducted from the next academic year in 2018. However, the idea has not been completely discarded. Apart from JEE, a number of states conduct their own tests where as several private colleges also conduct their own entrance examinations.

One of the main water source lines to KGP had a breach on the 22nd of August resulting in the cutoff of water supply to halls for maintenance work. The halls which had backup did not face any problem but some halls like MT and LBS got an intermittent supply of water, or sometimes no supply at all for long periods.
The problem has been rectified as of now and the water supply is ongoing again, but it would take sometime to regain normalcy.
We request everybody to use water judiciously.

Anthill Creations, founded by five IIT Kharagpur alumni Nancy Charaya(ex-Chief Editor, Awaaz), Pooja Rai, Nupur Agrawal, Souradeep Paul and Vishesh Gupta (all 2015 - B.Arch.), is one of the eight early-stage non-profit startups selected for an 18-month incubation program by the NS Raghavan Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning (NSRCEL) at the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Bangalore. The founders will also receive fellowship support of 18 lakh.
This is part of India's first-ever, non-profit startup incubator supported by the Michael and Susan Dell Foundation. The selected organizations are tackling some of the toughest challenges in education and skills among poor communities around the country.
Anthill Creations aims to build sustainable playscapes for children by using recyclable materials. The idea of Anthill Creations is to create the world where communities come together and active play becomes affordable and accessible to all. It works towards lighter, quicker and cheaper transformation of dead zones into interactive and sustainable playscapes from scrap tyres and recycled material by mobilizing the communities. Recycling non-biodegradable material like tyres, therefore, would not just help safeguard the environment but be cost effective as a building material too.
“Traditionally, mass produced recreational equipment for building a playground would cost a very high price, but since we are using material that is considered trash by some, we have been successful in setting up playgrounds for very cheap cost,” Souradeep had said in an interview.

With an aim to teach students the basic life science techniques, IIT Kharagpur is going to start Genomics Laboratory that would be first of its kind in India. The primary objective of the laboratory would be to teach all the students at the second year the basic techniques of life sciences that would include microscopy-based observation, molecular biology, protein structure and function and lastly, bioinformatics. Under the mentorship of faculties, from third year onwards, students would be allowed to plan and execute experiments by their own.

Prasanna Shrivastava, an IIT Kharagpur alumnus (Mechanical Engineering, 2005-09), has written this brilliant article in which he discusses various issues regarding what IITians do after graduation and has focused on certain myths as well. He ponders over various aspects backed with analysis of his own batch and in the process, breaks a few myths regarding IITians. It gives an insight to brain drain, the correlation between CGPA and entrepreneurial skills, IITians pursuing higher education, various roles through which they are contributing to the society etc.

In an unprecedented move, the Central government will provide Rs 70,000 as a monthly fellowship to those researchers doing their PhDs in IITs or IISc for a period of five years. At the 67th Foundation Day of IIT Kharagpur, Union higher education secretary Kewal Kumar Sharma said, “As part of the research fellowship scheme of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we wish the meritorious students who are being forced to leave the country for purely financial reasons stay within the country. We will provide 2,000 such monthly fellowships across the IIT system and IISc Bengaluru. The cabinet nod for the proposal should come soon. We are hopeful to start it from the next session,”
Presently researcher-students get Rs 25,000 as monthly scholarship at IITs.
We believe that this will financially empower students having a keen interest in research to continue their work without being forced to opt for lucrative corporate jobs for higher pay.

Our beloved IITKGP turned 67 today.
On this occasion, to show his love towards the campus and the amazing way it functions, Lokesh Deshmukh conceived the idea of The Portrait Project and Suraj Iyyengar executed it.
What a better day than the institute-foundation day to show the massive love and respect we have for the 'dadas' of the campus who have laid the foundation to the kgp culture and student life.
Here is a small effort towards recognising such people who're as much kgpians as we are (probably more). The list is in no way exhaustive and its just the beginning. Many more in store.
Next in line, we introduce Riya Rastogi from Dyal Singh College, New Delhi and Best Campus Ambassador for Northern India.
Here's what she says about her experience-
"I have been a part of SF for the last two years and it has always been a memorable journey for me and my team.
Chosen as a CA built a responsibility for keeping the team together. Full day hard work in competitions, fun in the star-nights and long night walks were the best moments for us.
The hospitality provided by SF team and freedom allowed by IIT KGP administration just adds up to the fun.The time we spent there has always been the best memories that remind us of the bond we have as a team."
What's life without a little suspense? After all, suspense is the only thing which keeps life interesting.

The late night bhaat sessions over a cup of hot tea, the food joints and canteens that are a lifeline for the 'gourmand', the 2.2 rounds, the incessant cramming before the exams and the subsequent collective groan at the unfortunate results, all have been a source of countless indelible memories for all KGPians.

In an initiative of its own kind, “Staff Excellency Awards” were awarded to some of the staff members in Azad Hall of Residence on the eve of Independence Day for their exemplary service. Amongst the awardees, one was the Mess Supervisor who has been discharging his duty with discipline and commitment for several years. Even though his daily official work starts around 5.30 am, he has seldom been late. Another, a mess worker who lives 25 kilometers away from the campus, works till late in the night to clean the plates and has seldom been absent.
In an another good gesture, plantation drive was also organized on this eve and wardens of the same hall planted trees in the hall premises to send out the message regarding the dire need of planting more and more trees.
Jai hind! These words from the innocent mouths of the little kids marks the start of Independence Day for us!
And this is how the rest happened!

As long as you are enthusiastic enough to learn, things will go smooth! ;)

The lure of a high-paying pre-placement job offer from Microsoft, however, could not distract him away from his passion for research. He is an IBM PhD Fellow at the Secured Embedded Architecture Laboratory, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Kharagpur and currently pursuing his PhD under the supervision of Dr. Debdeep Mukhopadhyay.
In this interview, he talks about his KGP life, secret of his stellar academic performance, internship experiences, passion for research and much more about such things.

Thirteen students from the Kharagpur RoboSoccer Students' Group (KRSSG) team represented the institute in the recently concluded RoboCup held in Nagoya (Japan). For qualification, they had submitted a video in the month of February and qualified for the final event.
RoboCup is an annual international robotics competition proposed and founded in 1997 with the aim of promoting robotics and AI research, by offering a publicly appealing, but formidable challenge. This year RoboCup was held in Nagoya, Japan. They participated in two leagues in RoboCup - Small Sized League and Humanoid Simulation League.
This year, it was their first participation in the Small Sized League and they faced a lot of technical difficulties. A total of twenty-four teams had qualified for the league, out of which only twenty could finally make it to the league. The twenty teams were divided into four groups. From each group, first two teams on the basis of performance were selected for the quarter finals. Unfortunately, they couldn’t make it to the quarters.
In the humanoid simulation league, it was their second participation. They stood 8th among 13 teams. They were able to defeat 5 different teams in one to one matches. They won a total of 7 matches, drew 3 and were in the quarter finals. They missed the chance to go to the semi finals by just one match!
Next year, the RoboCup will be held in Montreal, Canada. We hope for a better performance and even better results in the upcoming RoboCup.
Link to Competition website: https://www.robocup2017.o... /
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur congratulates the entire team for their stupendous efforts and commendable performance! They have surely made us all proud by putting IIT Kharagpur on RoboSoccer's world map.

Hola Freshers!
We hope you have started to settle into the daily bustle of the campus. In the past week you might have been glued to the notice boards of your halls, or rather they would have been glued with posters introducing a multitude of different societies and groups. Every society puts up a great effort just to capture a part of that board space, to ultimately capture your eye and even more to sell themselves to you later on. Before any narcissism creeps in, we would like to point out the importance of the existence of this plethora of opportunities out there. For starters, the sheer number of these societies is what differentiates KGP from the rest of the IITs. Topping that, over time, each of these societies have turned into hubs of creativity, intellectual might, cutting-edge research, sources of valuable insights and more than anything else, a great place to make friends and forge bonds that last forever.
Hence we would like to bring to your notice a little project we did. Presenting the Periodic Table of KGPian Societies, an interactive compilation of all known societies in our campus so that you at least have a brief idea of what to expect in the coming days, make your choices wisely and play your cards right, both intellectually and socially.
https://thescholarsavenue...
P.S: Any societies that need any edits in their respective sections can ping us, or mail us (thescholarsavenue@ gmail.com ) with the edits.
We have only accounted groups that are open to all and are not limited by the Departments and we agree that we might have missed a few nevertheless.
Technology Students' Gymkhana welcomes its new Technology Coordinator, Samriddhi Sinha for the academic session 2017-18. We take pleasure in extending our heartiest congratulations to him, and wish him all the very best for his tenure ahead!

Remember the announcement of getting the synthetic track built in Jnan Ghosh Stadium one and half years ago? Plans have been chalked out, the timeline has been rescheduled again and again, but we are yet to see even the first glimpse of any kind of construction work out there. In the series of articles under the column "Your Perspective", we would like to introduce you to the thoughts of a 5th year KGPian who feels that the delay in construction of synthetic track is dampening the spirit of athletes. And now that KGPians have performed brilliantly in sports fests and meets including the recent one in 67th West Bengal State Annual Athletics Meet, "IIT Kharagpur needs the synthetic track more now than ever!"
In case you wish to express your thoughts on a particular topic related to the campus, email them to awaazofiitkgp@ gmail.com with the subject as "Your Perspective".

Hello IIT-Kharagpur Alumni,
Unfortunately I am writing a public message since my messages to the alumni cell went completely answered.
I would like to request anyone who knows anyone from the MTech 1982 bacth, specifically from agricultural machinery or related fields, to please get in touch with me. My father, Late Udai Kumar Singh, who passed away in 1988 was an IIT-KGP alumni and I would love to speak to anyone who knew about him.
Please feel free to message me. I am really looking forward to any responses or leads.
Sincerely,
Shreya
सही ही कहा गया है, "You can take a KGPian out of KGP, but you can not take KGP out of a KGPian!" यह सांझ उषा का आँगन, आलिंगन विरह मिलन का | जहाँ मिलन है, वहां विरह भी स्वाभाविक है | आखिर वह भावुक क्षण आ ही गया जब हम इस KGP परिवार के अभिन्न अंग बनकर इससे बिछड़ रहे हैं | चार-पांच सालों के इस सफर में यादों का कारवां अपने आप बनता चला गया और न जाने कब हम इसके इतने करीब हो गए कि आज KGP से बिछड़ने पर चाह कर भी ह्रदय सब्र नहीं कर पा रहा | इल्लू के दीयों से लेकर टेम्पो शाउट तक | स्मृतियों का बाँध अब टूट पड़ा है | कितनी ही कड़वी मीठी खट्टी यादें - जिंदगी के चॉकलेट्स सी | इन्हीं भावनाओं को शब्दों में पिरोने की कोशिश की है 'आवाज़' ने | तो आप भी रूबरू होइए हमारे पासिंग आउट सीनियर्स की भावनाओं से, स्मृतियों से | झांकिए उनकी यादों के गलियारों में | प्रस्तुत है यादें...

For the first time in the sports history of IIT Kharagpur, our team participated in the West Bengal State Sports Meet held in Salt Lake Stadium, Kolkata. In the 67th edition of State Sports Meet which was held on 29th June to 1st July, a team of 6 students represented IIT Kharagpur and performed remarkably well.
Abin Devassia finished fourth in Discus Throw with a heave of astounding 37.25 metres. He also had 11.68 metres to his name in Shot put. Dimple Kapadia clocked 14 seconds in 100 metres and jumped 4.16 metres in Long Jump. Utsav Mazumder clocked a brilliant 11.9 seconds in 100 metres. Sairam Alla, a seasoned campaigner, took a mere 23.6 seconds in 200 metres. The credit for this marvellous performance and beginning of a new chapter in KGP's sports history goes to the coach Mr. Pranab Sarkar as well.
Abin Devassia who hails from Wayanad (Kerala), a 3rd year student of Ocean Engineering and Naval Architecture, is associated with Discuss Throw as he prefers field events. With only a mere practice of 2 months, he has a record of throwing 37.22 metres which in itself is a great accomplishment.
Korabu Dimple Kapadia, a student of Agriculture and Food Engineering, is a 100 metres sprinter. Hailing from Vizag, she comes from a family which has been associated with sports. This 3rd year student has been associated with sports from a tender age of 5.

Sairam Alla, a 5th year student of Computer Science and Engineering, hails from Vizag and primarily takes part in 200 m and 400 m.

A team of students from IIT Kharagpur, headed by Prof. Aurobinda Routray at the Department of Electrical Engineering, have created a device named Smart Hygiene Monitor (SHM) that helps in reducing the use of water, harmful cleaning agents and even manpower by alerting authorities about the need to clean an area (toilets, eateries, hospitals, parks, airports, railway stations) only when needed.
The Smart Hygiene Monitor (SHM) records levels of ammonia, sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, volatile organic compounds and particulate matter through sensors and sends online alerts to stakeholders when a certain threshold is crossed. It can be installed at any place where cleanliness needs to be monitored at regular intervals. At present, these public facilities are generally cleaned at fixed intervals, irrespective of how dirty they are.
The device has been developed using an embedded platform incorporated with sensors that are connected via the Internet of Things (IoT). “This monitor using sensors detects the level of hygiene in a room and through cloud sends data to the stakeholders,” Prof. Routray said, adding that the setup cost for a 20-sq ft area would be less than Rs 5,000.

Yogah Karmasu Kaushalam.
Naya Kadam Badhaye Hain,
Sath Hi Chalenge Ham.
'Sa Vidya Vimuktaye' Ka
Lakshya Hamara Paawan;
Mandir Saraswati Ka Hai,
Yah Ati Sundar Manbhaawan,
Tarah Tarah Ki Khan-paan Hai,
Bhasaon Ki Sarasata
Chanchalata Hai, Gati Unnati Hai,
Madhu Din-Raat Barasta;
Are Desh Ki Mahashakti Ka
Yehi To Hai Udgam.
Hijli Ke Aakash Ke Niche
Ek Naya Jeevan Hai,
Naye Lakshya Hain Naye Praan Hain,
Nutan Parivartan Hai.
Phul Khilen Hain Dali-Dali,
Is Upvan Ke Kyari-Kyari,
Karagaar bhi Dhanya Ho Gaya,
Bana Sanskriti ka Sangam.
IIT hai Garv Desh ka
Abhinandan-Abhinandan.

As per the recent data released by MHRD, 889 students have dropped out of IITs in the academic year of 2016-17. Out of these, 630 were Post Graduate students, 196 were PhD scholars and 63 were undergraduates. There has been a 35% rise in the number of dropouts as compared to previous year.
“The main reason for PhD and postgraduate students leaving courses midway are offers for placement in public sector enterprises and personal preference for better opportunities elsewhere”, as stated by the MHRD. Also, some undergraduates left due to their poor performances as well.
Another reason given by the MHRD for students dropping out mid way was the shortage of faculty. As of now, 4,500 seats (38%) remain vacant out of 13,012 seats. To address the problem, the ministry has decided to allow faculty working under central autonomous bodies to join IITs.
Interestingly, the recently set up IITs in Tirupati, Bhilai, Goa, Dharwad, Jammu and Dhanbad (formerly Indian School of Mines) have seen no dropouts. Most dropouts were from IIT-Roorkee (27%), followed by Delhi (20.6%), Kanpur (17.4%) and Kharagpur (10.6%).

“Every student in technical institute should undergo three internships each spanning four to eight weeks before completion of his/her under-graduation course. The responsibility will be on the institute to help students find a suitable industry for the internship,” Union HRD minister Javadekar was quoted as telling the Lok Sabha on Monday. The responsibility will be on the institute to help students find a suitable industry for the internship.
His statements come in the context of AICTE data from 2015-2016 which asserted that in 10,328 technical institutes, only 6.96 lakh students got campus placements out of 15.87 lakh students.
Meanwhile, the teachers of engineering institutes will have to take up online courses offered on government’s SWAYAM portal. “Every teacher in each of the technical discipline shall mandatorily undergo an annual refresher course through SWAYAM portal (Massive open online course), encapsulating all advances in their field of study,” the minister said.
However, it'll be interesting to see when are these decisions going to get formulated and transformed into action. This, if implemented, is surely expected to cause a huge turnaround in the field of engineering education.

Students of IIT Kharagpur have come up with innovative ideas in the past and present which have been able to make a positive impact in the society. The Entrepreneurial ventures of students have a diversified range which generally come with an efficacious way to help out people and foster the culture of innovation.
Prazium, by Enactus, IIT Kharagpur is one such Entrepreneurial action, which has won the 6th edition of the Saint Gobain Scholarship of Rs.1,00,000 for it's initial development, which was supported by Ethos so as to find a solution to the structural design problems faced today, using sustainable and eco-friendly methods. Hitesh Vyas, a 4th year architecture student, as one of the members of Enactus, presented the project in the National level competition held in May 2017 which was declared the winner of the scholarship. It tends to reduce the cost of construction and develop houses by using processed Bamboo as a replacement for steel reinforcements.
Professor Damodar Maity of the Civil Engineering Department of IIT Kharagpur helped with the background research for this development.
Prazium is an indigenous project in collaboration with the concrete laboratories at IIT Kharagpur and some of the prototypes have been practiced in the IIT Kharagpur’s campus itself. It now aims to provide the new development to the nearby rural areas to the campus and eventually expand throughout the country.
The Scholars’ Avenue congratulates the Prazium team for their achievement and wishes them the best of luck for their future endeavors.

According to a recent report by Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India for the year ended March 2016, avoidable expenses and irregularities at some of the IITs have cost Rs. 18.03 crores. In this Compliance Audit Observations report, these are some of the few points made about these irregularities:
1) Idle expenditure: Failure on the part of the IIT Roorkee to construct sewer line across NH-58 and STP at Roorkee and Saharanpur campuses resulted in an idle expenditure of Rs. 15.06 crore incurred on the construction of sewer line which could not be utilised even after the lapse of more than four years from the scheduled date of completion.
2) Irregular payment of Service Tax: IIT Roorkee made payment of service tax amounting to Rs. 1.34 crores on the outsourced services, although these services were exempted from payment of such tax. Same goes for IIT Patna with Rs. 8.36 crores.
3) Avoidable expenditure towards penal charges on electricity consumption: IIT Madras had incurred an avoidable expenditure of Rs. 1.05 crores towards penalty for exceeding contracted demand during April 2013 to March 2016 due to non-review and enhancement of sanctioned demand.
4) Irregular waiver of overpayment: The Board of Governors of IIT Jodhpur irregularly waived recovery of excess payment amounting to Rs. 59.38 lakhs made to its faculty, which is now under recovery at the instance of Audit.
5) Irregular reimbursement of LTC (Leave Travel Concession) claims by Central Autonomous Bodies: Central Autonomous Bodies irregularly reimbursed air fares of Rs. 6.90 crores during 2012-16 against the air tickets purchased by their employees from unauthorised agents in violation of the MoF guidelines for availing Leave Travel Concession. IIT Kharagpur, despite delayed submission of claims, did not recover LTC advance of Rs. 1.14 crore of which Rs. 19.85 lakh was to be forfeited. Cross verification of claims with the Airlines also revealed that the air fares reimbursed by the IIT Kharagpur and IIT Bombay were inflated by Rs. 18.56 lakhs (11.21 lakhs for IIT Kharagpur, 7.35 lakhs for IIT Bombay).

"If there were ever to be another Ajit and you could swap me for him, don't hesitate. Make the trade!", said Warren Buffett, chairman of the board, about Ajit Jain in a letter to Berkshire shareholders in 2016.
Ajit Jain, an IIT Kharagpur alumnus, President of Berkshire Hathaway Insurance group and one of the two potential successors to legendary investor Warren Buffett has donated stocks of the company to IITKGP USA Foundation for his alma mater IIT Kharagpur. Jain is touted to be one of the two favoured candidates as eventual successor of Berkshire Hathaway founder and CEO Buffett.
Ajit Jain, a distinguished alumnus of IIT Kharagpur, graduated with B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering in the year 1972. In 1978, he moved to the United States, where he earned an MBA from Harvard University. After graduation, he held various positions at top tier management consultancy McKinsey & Co., up until 1986 when he joined Berkshire Hathaway. He is currently the President of Berkshire Hathaway Insurance group and leads several other insurance companies housed inside the broader Berkshire Group.
It's quite a unique gesture as the institute has been receiving only monetary donations till now. “Ajit is very close and dear to Warren Buffett. Warren considers him like his own son. We are proud to have our alumni so valuable to Warren Buffett,” said Mr. Vinod Gupta, another famous distinguished alumnus who pioneered big-ticket alumni contributions to IIT Kharagpur with a $2 million-plus donation in the Nineties.

The entire world stands shattered with the demise of one of the most gifted contemporary artists of all time.
This serves as a reality check for everyone and goes to show that depression is indeed very real.
Our social initiative Astitva launched last year aimed to address the stigma around mental health.
Although a person may seem jovial from outside, but one doesn't really know if they're facing issues in their lives. The best thing one can do is to reach out and pay heed to their silent cries for help, that often go unheard.

The proxy address for internet access is being changed to "172.16.2.30" by CIC for technical reasons related to upgradation of backend proxy servers. Users are requested to start using this new proxy address for internet access immediately instead of the existing address (10.3.100.207). For any problem with accessing the internet with the new proxy address, users are requested to report the problem to helpdesk@cc.iitkgp.ernet.in.
The old proxy address (10.3.100.207) will also continue to be operational for some more time until further notice and will be taken off (with due notice beforehand) sometimes in end-July/early-August after the new proxy is stabilized. However, users are strongly recommended to start using the new proxy address immediately and report any problems to CIC helpdesk as the proxy address will change to this new one by end-July/early-August anyway.
All other settings such as the existing proxy bypass i.e. "No Proxy for 10.0.0.0/8, .iitkgp.ernet.in and .iitkgp.ac.in" for internal servers will remain same for now. We request all to shift to the new address asap to help CIC root out any teething problems that may occur. Your cooperation is deeply appreciated.

With the aim to make Computer Science research at IIT Kharagpur more inclusive, we seek to share and discuss some of the distinguished results and insights from work of research scholars, starting from the recent work on a new temporal model for evolving citation networks.
This work by research scholars Mayank Singh & Rajdeep Sarkar and Prof. Pawan Goyal, Prof. Animesh Mukherjee has been accepted to ACM SIGKDD 2017, one of the top CS conference in the area of Data Mining; in-fact being the only paper from India to get accepted to KDD. The attached video provides a concise summary of the model and results, and is also in competition with other accepted works wrt total views, so please do make sure to watch and share!
As a fundamental goal of CSURG is to initiate and foster research interest at an early stage for undergrads, we'll also be looking forward to work towards providing an overview of such excellent work in a way that requires low background-knowledge on reader's part 😀!
Full paper is available at https://arxiv.org/pdf/160...
https://www.youtube.com/w...
What is the destiny of your research paper? Is it going to be increasingly popular OR shall it lose its popularity as time passes by? What other papers would gain from the loss of this popularity?
We answer some of these interesting questions in our work on modeling how the flow of citations, coming to a paper, is diverted to other research papers. This work has been accepted among 131 (out of 748 submissions) research ideas from all around the globe in one of the top CS conferences in the area of Data Mining and Data Sciences (ACM SIGKDD 2017). This is the ONLY work from India that got through this time in SIGKDD.
In this work, we talk about how research papers that get older by time lose their potential citations. We prove that new papers that cite these older papers steal the incoming citations. We also prove that this stealing (or relaying from the old to the new) effect becomes more prominent as time passes by.
Please help our team to compete with others in having maximum view count of our Youtube video. WATCH, LIKE and SHARE it to your friends as much as possible. Make it the MOST WATCHED VIDEO among all projects.
Self-driving cars are coming — sooner than you think. But when will we get there, and how will we get there?
Two terms for the transition have become standard in the auto industry. There's the "evolutionary" path to autonomous vehicles, where today's cars get self-driving features bit by bit — Tesla's autopilot feature, for example. And then there's the "revolutionary" path. That's where totally self-driving cars, like the ones Google is working on, start as test vehicles and become more mainstream as they can drive in more places.
There's an ongoing debate over which path is the safer one. But these paths will eventually converge.
Today's most advanced semi-autonomous features can be found in Tesla's and a few other cars that allow drivers to take their hands off the steering wheel on a highway. Using a series of sensors and cameras, cars can also merge, self-park, stay within a lane and brake as needed.
This tech works particularly well for commercial trucks that operate on highways. Companies like Peloton and NXP are "platooning" trucks — tying them together through a vehicle-to-vehicle communication system. A "pilot" truck drives while those behind can sit and relax.
Google and Ford are testing self-driving cars in structured environments like test tracks, as well as cities with relatively light traffic, like Austin, Texas and Mountain View, Calif. Vehicles travel at slow speeds — up to 25 miles an hour — while gathering data on pedestrians and human drivers; they are also starting to drive at night, and in rain and snow.
By 2019, Driver-assistance features will get more sophisticated, and will sync up with GPS and navigation. So a driver should be able to input a destination while driving on a highway, turn on adaptive cruise control and let the car drive itself. When it gets to the appropriate exit, the car will return control to the driver.
In the USA, NHTSA (NATIONAL HIGHWAYS TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION) has begun working on rules for testing and deployment of fully autonomous vehicles, without a driver, across the country. In the meantime, companies like Google will be racking up miles to gather data about every single type of situation a self-driving vehicle might encounter; mapping companies will gather as much 3D data in major cities as possible. Car makers and tech companies will have to make sure light detection and ranging (lidar) and radar sensors, as well as cameras and GPS, can work together, while ensuring that each component can function independently if one of them fails
.
Companies will also be testing vehicles in all climates and environments, including rain and snow. They'll also test cars in more places, moving from test tracks and low-density cities to roads with more foot and vehicle traffic.
Commercial trucks will likely be the first vehicles to hit the road autonomously, if state and federal regulators give them them the go-ahead to work on highways.
Here is one such article on the legislation making rounds in the Congress for federal rules on self driving cars to supersede state and local regulations :

We can be prepared for a more detailed induction programme from this semester onwards, it seems. This should go a long way in helping out students if implemented properly.
"Instead of one-time induction, refurbishing programmes have been planned round the year. For students of second year, an assimilation programme to departments and academics would be introduced. For third year students, a reorientation programme for pathway choices have been developed. In fourth year, the students would undergo a de-induction programme which would make them ready to face the world beyond the realms of family and educational institutions."
Registration are finally open for Young Innovators' Programme.

Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur wishes all the best to the students who wish to apply!
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur shared a group.
JEE Main, JEE Advanced, BITSAT and other engineering entrance exams have taken place and few of them already have their results out. Rest of the results will also be out in a couple of weeks. Now that ranks of various entrance exams are out (or will be out), its equally important for the aspirants to get acquainted with all the required information and only then choose their branch and college. For that, there is a need of such a platform for proper counselling where aspirants can get information and advice, so that they can make better decisions. To serve this purpose, Student Welfare Group (SWG) IIT Kharagpur has taken an initiative and formed a JEE Counselling group (link below). All the aspirants looking for joining college this year as well as students who are already in colleges and hence, can help out aspirants with their experiences, are requested to join this group.
https://www.facebook.com/...
In an attempt to guide the aspirants for IITs, NITs and other engineering institutions of the country, students of IIT Kharagpur like every other year have taken this unique initiative.
We strongly hope for success in guiding them to take one of the most important decisions of their life in the best way.

The winner would be chosen through a voting platform, called the Audience Choice Awards.
TAKNIQUEE from IIT KGP has come up with an innovative approach to tackle the energy problem and achieve cooling in the midst of summers using an energy-friendly approach. The name of their idea is "Passive Solar Water Wall".
They will be fighting it out for the maximum number of votes with 4 other universities, namely, Nanyang Technological University (Singapore), Delft University of Technology (Netherlands), University of Texas at Austin (USA) and University of Cambridge (UK), who themselves have put forth new ways to tip the energy scale.
You can showcase your support to the team by voting for the team at the link provided below. The voting will close on the 23rd of May and the results will be announced on the 25th of May. The team will be on it's way to London on the 24th of May to give a final presentation.

No CFC emission, no carbon emission, negligible electricity usage and almost 50% reduction in the cooling cost, have we ever thought of such type of air conditioning system in our house? Well never! But, two talented minds of IIT Kharagpur, Sahashranshu Maurya and Somrup Chakraborty(Department of Geology and Geophysics), have come up with a unique idea to challenge the climate change, global warming and many other environmental issues (listen the full idea here: https://vimeo.com/2122331... ).
This year in Shell Ideas360, over 17000 students collaborated to share over 750 innovative ideas to tackle the pressures on the world’s energy, water and food resources. Through the various stages and rigrous selection process finally five ideas have been shortlisted for Audience Choice Award at #makethefuture Live in London. Passive Solar Water Wall, by team "Takniquee" from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, is one of the five ideas shortlisted.
The team with the highest number of votes will receive the Audience Choice Award 2016-17. The voting period is from May 13 to May 23, 2017. We request to every students of IIT Kharagpur to vote in a large number to support the team "Takniquee" and make them win the contest by large margin.

Push from the Government is quite evident !
With an exciting time ahead for high impact research in CS, the Computer Science Undergraduate Research Group marks a new initiative for cultivating a culture of research and innovation among undergrads and bringing them together with the community of grad students and professors early in their academic career.
In its pilot-testing phase, CSURG achieves tremendous success with acceptance of the research paper "Social Media Advertisement Outreach: Learning the Role of Aesthetics" to ACM SIGIR 2017, renowned as the world's most prestigious conference in Information Retrieval. The work comes from the independent effort of 4 third year undergrads, Avikalp Srivastava, Madhav Datt, Jaikrishna Ch & Shubham Mangla and highlights the potential of research at the undergraduate level that remains untapped at most Indian universities.
With this success, CSURG is now growing, and hopes to induct highly motivated undergrads, and work closely with with PhD scholars, CNERG - Complex Networks Research Group, IIT Kharagpur and research groups with an aim to mentor and familiarise students with research at an early stage, and enable them to publish high quality and impact work to top-tier conferences and journals.
All of us at CSURG are extremely excited about working with undergraduates and are looking forward to an enthusiastic participation. Cheers!

Update on the Tragic Accident.
The primary investigation of the accident by the Andhra Pradesh Police which today shook the entire KGP family unfolded the identification of the deceased and the cause of the accident. The bereaved N Ravi Teja, 27, a Software Engineer at Oracle, Hyderabad, T Rohith, 28, a Software Development Engineer at Amazon, Hyderabad and P Surya Teja, 27, Principal Software Engineer at ZeMoSo Technologies, Hyderabad all belonged to the 2011 batch of IIT Kharagpur.
Surya Teja who was at the steering of the Hyundai Verna, tried to overtake a DCM van from the left side with the car believed to be speeding at about 120 kmph rammed into the side railing after clashing with the van, said P Laxmikanth Reddy, senior inspector, Andhra Pradesh Police. He further added that the driver of the van cannot be blamed as he was driving in the the third lane of the four lane Ring Road at a speed less than 80 kmph which is legitimate. Although a case has been registered under sections 304-A and 337 of the Indian Penal Code against the van driver who himself is undergoing treatment for his head injuries. The police also said that none of the youngsters were wearing seat belt.
Awaaz, IIT Kharagpur urges everyone to carefully follow the traffic rules with full security and safety measures while travelling to avert such untoward happenings.
With inputs from Deccan Chronicle and The New Indian Express.
We are very sorry to inform you that 4 Alumni of IIT KGP met with an accident in Hyderabad today morning at 7:40, out of which 3 succumbed to death. All of them were graduates working in different IT firms. They were to attend a marriage when they met with this fatal mishap after being grazed by a truck. Ravi Teja and Surya Teja died on the spot, while Rohit breathed his last during the treatment.
We offer condolences to their families, and pray with all our hearts that this unfortunate trend of deaths in/related to our institute does not continue any further.

In what came as a shock to the institute, three graduates of IIT Kharagpur, Ravi Teja, Surya Teja and Rohith lost their life in a road mishap on Outer Ring Road at Tukkuguda on the outskirts of Hyderabad yesterday. They were travelling by a car from Gachibowli to Khammam to attend a marriage when the vehicle was grazed by a truck coming from opposite direction. The car swerved, hit side-railing of the road and overturned killing Ravi and Surya on the spot while Rohith succumbed to head injuries at a nearby hospital.
Our heart goes with the family and friends of the deceased and may the departed souls rest in peace.

Victor Hugo once said, "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come."
One such idea struck the mind of a second-year Biotech student in the march of 2012 and culminated in the form of ProDex. It was the idea that would give platform and voice to innovative Ideas of the students in the coming years. It's been five years since then, and it has given voice and opportunity to many students to express their thoughts and make their imaginations real.
We as a team have achieved a lot in these five years, but the importance of this journey does not lie in the past but in the achievements that will bless us in the times to come. There is no end to this journey, the journey is an end in itself.
Thanks, Jai Sankar for such a wonderful gift.
Thanks to our alumni for the help in the realization of this revolutionary idea.
At last thanks to the #TeamProDex for the efforts and dedication, you have been putting all these years.

Off to a great start to an awesome RoboCup journey. Do have a look at our SSL 2017 Qualification Video.
Do read The Scholars' Avenue's coverage of our work.
We had successfully conducted an introductory workshop on GSoC wherein we had invited speakers who were selected as students as well as mentors in GSoC. They shared their experiences, benefits, tips and advice on how to participate in the open source culture! Thanks to all of the speakers (Pranit Bauva, Himanshu Mishra, Avijit Ghosh, Nishant Nikhil, Sampad Saha, Anchit Navelkar, Shivam Vats, Ayush Pandey, Harsh Gupta, Pranay Yadav, Abinash Meher) as well as those who attended!
Greetings !
We are sharing the highlights from the GSoC session yesterday for those who could not attend. This[1] is the link of our presentation.
Please join Klug on Slack[2] by inviting your self from here - https://klug-slack.heroku...
Join the #gsoc channel and introduce yourself in a line or two. You can find a lot of GSoCers from KGP[3] over there, so don't hesitate.
We had mentioned about FLOSS Manuals[4] for the students. You must give this a read. It is written in a very simple and lucid manner and is one of the most useful resources for you right now.
You should also give a light read to a classic article on How to Ask Smart Questions[5]. And this is not just for GSoC !
And finally, here are a bunch of resources for you to learn Git[6], which you would be using later.
Email us or ask on KLUG slack for any help that we can provide. Do not hesitate. :)

Are you passionate about data science and applied mathematics? Did you feel that even though math was your strongest suit growing up, it was only an academic science and not applicable in real life situations?
All that has changed with the advent of data science and computing. And financial markets are one of the best places to learn and apply these skills.
